I looked online and saw that setting the DISPLAY variable like this has fixed this problem for others:
This is a misunderstanding on your side. The DISPLAY variables content should probably be ":0.0" and what you see is a command where it is set this way, then started openbox in the background with this setting. Therefore:
This is complete nonsense. If you want the DISPLAY variable to be ":0.0" (which means "use the local displays first screen for displaying your content") you should do it this way:
The real problem, though, might not be addressed yet and you might want to read up about X-Windows concepts to get a picture of what your problem is. My suspicion is that either no X-Server is running on your machine or that it is running but simply forbids other sources to use it. Issue "xhost +" as the user under which the X-Server runs to disable access control and then try again. You will still have to set the DISPLAY variable to tell the openbox-application which X-Server to use.
For a (very very short) introduction to X-Windows concepts you might want to read this.

I'm unable to install OpenBSD 4.9 boot disk after having burnt the "install49.iso" file.
On boot, it says:

Thank you. (1 Reply)

OPENBOX(1) General Commands Manual OPENBOX(1)NAME
openbox -- A minimalistic, highly configurable, next generation window manager with extensive standards support.
SYNOPSIS
openbox [--help] [--version] [--replace] [--reconfigure] [--restart] [--config-file FILE] [--sm-disable] [--sync] [--debug]
[--debug-focus] [--debug-xinerama]
DESCRIPTION
Openbox is minimalistic, highly configurable, next generation window manager with extensive standards support.
You can start Openbox in three ways:
If you run a display manager such as GDM, you will find 3 entries in the login session type menu for Openbox: GNOME/Openbox, KDE/Openbox
and Openbox. If you want to use Openbox within GNOME or KDE, you can choose the appropriate entry, and it will launch GNOME or KDE with
Openbox as the window manager.
The third option at log in, which is Openbox without a session manager, uses the openbox-session command to start Openbox. On
log in, openbox will run the ~/.config/openbox/autostart.sh script if it exists, and will run the system-wide script /etc/xdg/open-
box/autostart.sh otherwise. You may place anything you want to run automatically in those files, for example:
xsetroot -solid grey &
gnome-settings-daemon &
Make sure that each line is followed by a "&" or else the script will stop there and further commands will not be executed. You can use the
/etc/xdg/openbox/autostart.sh file as an example for creating your own.
The default /etc/xdg/openbox/autostart.sh runs a number of things with Openbox.
Lastly, if you use startx to launch your X session, you can set up a ~/.xinitrc file to run openbox-session and follow the same directions
as above regarding the autostart.sh file.
You can use the obconf tool to configure Openbox easily with a graphical interface, however more in-depth configuration is possible by
editing the configuration files by hand.
The default configuration and menu files are installed in /etc/xdg/openbox/, and the user configuration is placed in ~/.config/openbox/.
You can copy the default configuration and menus to ~/.config/openbox and edit it to your liking.
OPTIONS
These are the possible options that openbox accepts:
--help Show a summary of the options available.
--version Show the version of the program.
--replace Replace the currently running window manager.
--reconfigure
If Openbox is already running on the display, tell it to reload its configuration.
--restart If Openbox is already running on the display, tell it to restart. This is useful if you have upgraded Openbox and don't want to
restart X.
--config-file FILE
Use FILE for configuration instead of looking for rc.xml in the XDG search path. FILE is an absolute path.
--sm-disable
Do not connect to the session manager.
--sync Run in synchronous mode (for debugging).
--debug Display debugging output.
--debug-focus
Display debugging output for focus handling.
--debug-xinerama
Split the display into two fake xinerama regions, if xinerama is not already enabled. This is for debugging xinerama support.
