    Angry Trying to install Oracle 920 on HPUX, no room in /tmp

    I am trying to install Oracle. I only have 64 mb in tmp. With other versions of Oracle I was able to create a directory and then create a softlink in tmp to fake out Oracle. This version create a directory with a time stamp to the second. So by the time I create the link for the directory Oracle was looking for I restart the installer and it wants a new directory

    Does anyone have any ideas on how to change the tmp directory for the install. Any helpful suggestions would be appreciated.

    hpuxsrvr/oracle/export/1111/920/Disk1:
    Error in writing to directory /tmp/OraInstall2003-01-08_10-34-05AM. Please ensure that this directory is writable and has atleast 5.
    : No such file or directory

    Thanks in advance,

    Brian.

    export TEMP=/u01/temp
    export TEMP_DIR=/u01/temp
    export TMP_DIR=/u01/temp
    export TMP=/u01/temp


    /u01/temp=(path where u have enough space and is writable)
