Re: shared memory error SCO install
Posted in 1999
Brian,
You didn't specify what version of the engine/OS you are running. But you
should change your SHMBASE to 0x82000000 aand SHMVIRTSIZE to 8192. Then
check your release notes. With SCO you may have to install a patch or make
changes to your kernel.
HTH
