10.2.0.3 Patch Help....

Hi Techies,
We have installed Oracle 10.2.0.1 and upgraded it to 10.2.0.3. Now for an application installation I have to install 6038241 patch for Oracle 10.2.0.3. When i check the readme notes of it that says that I have to upgrade the timezone to version 4. Now my questions are
1. Currently there is just a database which is created along with installation with no data on it. So is it necessary to update the same.
2. When i am trying to update the timezone using opatch it gives me an error opatch version obsolete...
Please help me through this....

>> 1. Currently there is just a database which is created along with installation with no data on it. So is it necessary to update the same.
If you mean, you have selected the starter database (which has no data) while installing Oracle 10.2.0.1 software, and after upgrading the Oracle Software from 10.2.0.1 to 10.2.0.3.
Normally, after applying the 10.2.0.3 patch you will have to upgrade your database as well. But in your case, your database has no data. So, you can drop your old database and create a new database after 10.2.0.3 patch applied.
>> 2. When i am trying to update the timezone using opatch it gives me an error opatch version obsolete...
You have to have the latest compatible and latest opatch utility on your server. Fore more information on this take a look at the below Oracle Metalink Note.
Note:602334.1 - Opatch Not Working, Reporting That It Is Obsolete

Sort Dumps All Over in DEV and QAS While Applying Patches - Help Pls

Applying about 80 patches on DEV and QAS over the weekend with the "Minimize Downtime" option. I got failure at the "TEST_IMPORT" phase and tried to backout and ignore the error but now I keep getting short dumps for any tcode that I use. I can't get past short dumps.
Here is a sample of short dump that I got when I try to execute SPAM and reapply just one patch. I does not load the patch, it just generates a short dump. I opened an OSS note with SAP and they refused to consider that as high priority. Since my DEV and QAS systems are down, the developers will not have any system to work on today and there will be a lot pressure on me today. Please help.
Short Dump text below
The following syntax error occurred in the program SAPLKKBL :
"The field "GFLG_NESTED_PRINT_ON" is unknown, but there is a field with"
Error in ABAP application program.
The current ABAP program "CL_GUI_ALV_GRID===============CP" had to be
terminated because one of the
statements could not be executed.
This is probably due to an error in the ABAP program.
What can you do?
Please eliminate the error by performing a syntax check
(or an extended program check) on the program "SAPLKKBL ".
You can also perform the syntax check from the ABAP/4 Editor.
If the problem persists, proceed as follows:
Print out the error message (using the "Print" function)
and make a note of the actions and input that caused the
error.
To resolve the problem, contact your SAP system administrator.
You can use transaction ST22 (ABAP Dump Analysis) to view and administer
termination messages, especially those beyond their normal deletion

Hi
Please check the following link, it may help you:
Re: Can not lanche workflow with event

ZCM Patches Help

I am having a few issues with our patch management system and I am hoping to find some help here. First issue we are running into is that the patchlink collection folders on our zcm servers keep getting backed up with hundreds of <guid>.tmp files. I found the following document: 7008309 to help with this, but it continues to be an issue. The other issue is that we are not getting MS patches quickly. For example, there were 4 MS patches released on July 13, 2011 and they are not showing up in our patch management system anywhere. Patch management is showing that the service is running and that it downloaded patches on July 18th. We have a valid license and the subscription service history shows completed patch downloads. One strange thing, there is not a Signature Download or Last Signature Download Time. Anyways, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
-Nate

Thanks for the TID. That is helpful knowledge. And Yes, the "missing" patches from MS are security issues. Here is a link to the exact patches I'm looking for: Microsoft Security Bulletin Summary for July 2011 The patches are listed in the Executive Summary. Thanks for your help.

PSU Finding the correct patches help

I'm confused on what patches I need to apply. I can easily find the WLS PSU patch (19182814), and have patched that before without issues.
This is what my opatch is telling me I have installed on one server running the web tier:
Oracle WebTier and Utilities CD
11.1.1.7.0
Are these the correct patches to apply: 18603707 18423801 18603703 17664563 18423831?   If so, why are there no patches for October 2014? Is 11.1.1.7 out of support, or was there just no new patches?
This is what opatch is telling me I have for a server running Forms and Reports:
Oracle Portal, Forms, Reports and Discoverer 11g Patchset
11.1.1.7.0
This one I'm not sure, I can't seem to find anything, so is this one out of support?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

Hello Prakash,
Thanks for your response. I have looked at that document. I am beyond confused. Am I basically supposed to go through that section (Table 87 Patch Availability for Oracle Fusion Middleware 11.1.1.7), and download any and all patches for Oracle Portal, Forms, Reports and Discoverer 11.1.1.7.0 home or Oracle Web Tier 11.1.1.7.0 home? - If this is correct then all these need to be applied to both my WebTier and Forms and Reports homes:Patch 17337741 Patch 17306880 Patch 17664563 Patch 17617649 Patch 18423801 Patch 19591065
I got the above patches in my first question from the MOS patches Recommended Patch Advisor by selecting:
Product: Oracle HTTP Server
Release: 11.1.1.7.0
And our platform
Does the recommended patch advisor not work the way I thought it does? Also I'm assuming that these are like the DB SPU/PSU patches and that they are accumulative? OR do I need to go back and apply any and all previous security patches?
Thank you!

No audio hiccups in wine patch help

I'm trying to implement this patch: http://wiki.winehq.org/Implement_SetThreadPriority by Mike Hearn which will enable wine to work without all the nasty audio glitches when using alsa. However hunk 1 fails on configure.ac as the patch hasn't been updated to any new wine version. Apart from that it seems to work fine.
Can anyone help me get this baby compiled as i want to play my games without the nasty audio glitches and don't care if i have to be root

That was a simple fix... I didn't compile it all the way but it should be fine with this rediffed patch for wine 0.9.25. I'm not sure if this will help or are you saying you haven't even tried compiling it yet?
Here is the patch.
Hope that helps you.

Need to either downgrade X or downgrade video drivers, patching help

Hi,
I'm using a matrox g450 which worked in the older version of X server..1.4. Is there a way to downgrade back to this version of X or the drivers.
I see this on an ubuntu bug list https://bugs.launchpad.net/xorg-server/+bug/292214
but I can't seem to figure out how to apply the patches there. help, please!

If you're looking for xorg-server 1.4 you'll need much older packages, since the switch occurred a while back. You might try just downgrading xorg-server, but I would be surprised if you'll have to do the same for most of the packages in xorg to get it to work.

Software synth patch help

Does anyone have a simple way of getting a good "falling pitch" analog sound using the software synths included with Logic Studio 9?
I am starting to do a lot more project studio work and programming of cover songs, and although it's hard to relay the sound I'm looking for in words, the best examples for the sound I am looking to create is audible in No Doubt's Hella Good & more recently in Kesha's Tik Tok. For lack of better reference, it's reminiscent of a "cartoon space gun" where the pitch drops off at an adjustable rate.
Any suggestions, help, advice, etc would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Basically, you just want a pitch envelope to make the pitch do what you want on the attack, decay or release.
The ES synths have routable envelopes, so you can route any of them to pitch and do what you want.

Did the new patch help you? Yes or

I was really hoping to post on here that this patch fixed my issue... but alas it has not.
I tested it by not going into my bios, on first reboot I went to a ytmnd site and the streaming music drove my soundcard nuts (crackling) till firefox crashed, and the sound started cycling... until windows finally forced firefox closed.
Now, I was wondering if CL or anyone else has any clue why me entering bios during startup would fix my issue for that one startup? Do these soundcards not have enough time during bootup to sync correctly or something?

No. The patch still didn't address Windows' recognition problems with it. Windows 64 still won't recognize the X-FI even with the drivers. The worst thing is, it ran flawlessly way back before they drivers expired..Message Edited by Chasgn on 07-3-2006 2:38 PM

Patching help

I just installed Solaris 10 1/06 GA on a new PC. I ran Update Manager and it applied a bunch of patches. It still shows four patches in my "Available Updates" tab. Three of these it says will be installed at the next restart but they never are. I reboot and they're still in the "Available Updates" list. The fourth is a kernel patch, 118844-28. This says I need to install it manually.
If I go to the directory where the patch was downloaded, /var/sadm/spool and type 'patchadd 118844-28,' I get:
<div class="pre"><pre>Validating patches...
Loading patches installed on the system...
Done!
Loading patches requested to install.
Cannot locate 118844-28 to install.</pre></div>
OK. If I try 'patchadd ./118844-28.jar' I get:
<div class="pre"><pre>Validating patches...

What am I doing wrong? Why won't the first three patches (119716-10, 119375-13, 113000-07) install when I reboot and why won't patchadd install 118844-28?
Thanks.

I've fixed half of my problem. Upon reading the manual (imagine that!), I discovered this passage:
<table border="0" align="center" width="90%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td class="SmallText"><b>Quote:</b></td></tr><tr><td class="quote">
If an update you install requires a system reboot to activate it, the update is staged for installation at the next system shutdown. You must use one of the following commands to initiate the system shutdown:
</td></tr></table>
I wasn't using one of those commands. When I did, the three patches installed on the next boot. Now, I only have the kernel patch remaining in my "Available Updates" tab. I still can't get that one to install. Any hints?

[SOLVED] xfce4 automounting problem on usb dev with utf8 encoded files

I have problem of auto mounting usb external drive contains utf8 encoded files under xfce4.
Using hal and dbus for usb device detection.
Heard that I need to add iocharset=utf8 under fstab or hal fdi configure files and tried them all but didn't work
usb devices with vfat always got mounted with default charset.
I found out that exo-mount is the one doing the actual mounting and that it is the one that cannot take all extra mounting options such as iocharset etc.
Have tried gnome to mount this hard drive and works find with nautilus option that let me set various mount options for each harddrive.
Is there any way to replace exo-mount with some other alternative mounting tools that work with thunar?
Any workaround will be helpful as long as I can mount my usb drives with prefer charset so that I don't have to guess all ???marked files.
Heard that xubuntu replaced that exo-mount with gnome-mount to handle drives with extra mount options such as iocharset.
but I am pretty new to configuring things and couldn't find the step by step instruction for this so please provide the complete solution.
Link to the pages that explain workaround would be nice as well.
Thanks in advance!

Found the patch for exo-mount so that it takes additional mount options HAL suggests.
https://bugzilla.altlinux.org/attachmen … ction=diff
Now my usb drive can be mounted with the proper charset.
Hope this patch helps others with similar situation as well!
