Hello all,

I am trying to install oracle 8.0.5.0.0 on SCO Unix Ware 7.1.1.

While trying to install Oracle, the Oracle Installer bombs out, because it says that my ulimit is not high enough. It needs the ulimit to be 2113674. But my hard limit of ulimit is 2097152. This figure is less than what Oracel needs.

Now I have tried to put ULIMIT=unlimited in the /etc/default/login file but this is of no use. Also I have tried to set

ulimit unlimited

but at the unix prompt I get the error that, the value is exceeded and I cannot set the value as unlimited.

Now can you please help me in trying to set the value as unlimited some how so that the oracle installer does not get object, and I can install the product.

Thanks and Regards,

Raja
