Cause:

Display variable is not set and so dbca cannot be invoked

[oracle@dgprim01 bin]$ ./dbca
DISPLAY not set.
Set DISPLAY environment variable, then re-run.
[oracle@dgprim01 bin]$ export DISPLAY=localhost:10.0

Workaround:

Set DISPLAY variable 

[oracle@dgprim01 bin]$ export DISPLAY=localhost:10.0
[oracle@dgprim01 bin]$ ./dbca
