Hello,
Running the installer and get

hardnofiles should be set to 8192 but was 0

I ran create oracle sh

oracle soft nofile 8192
oracle hard nofile 8192
oracle soft nproc 4096
oracle hard nproc 4096

oracle hard core unlimited

I even rebooted, but have not been able to get around this. Any suggestions would be helpful...

Thanks!
