Your local X server probably doesn't let any user but the one who logged into X pop up windows. xhost + as that user might help,but I'm not sure.

In any case, if this X window really isn't really a part of the project, maybe there's a better way to signal you that it succeeded? Could you make the server's PC speaker beep or something? (install the beep utility, setuid it, then just /usr/bin/beep)
