so how do you access the machine?

so how do you start firefox?
which desktop environment?

and if you say "none because there is no X11" than that is why you get the error

you can simply runa grpahical program only in a X11 session
local from whatever desktop environment or remote via X11-forwarding

so your two post do NOT describe your environment and you need to
help people helping you by provide informations
