Cannot Download July 2012 Critical Patch Update for JRockit

All,
I am trying to download:
"Oracle Critical Patch Update Advisory - July 2012", particularly for JRockit. I keep running into what seems to be a database issue on Oracle's side.
The July 2012 Patch informational notes are at:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/topics/security/cpujul2012-392727.html
And I am trying to download the Fusion Middleware patch (as JRockit is included in Fusion Middleware, it seems like).
I go to download from the following URL, as stated in the July Patch Release:
https://support.oracle.com/CSP/main/article?cmd=show&type=NOT&id=1455387.1
and receive:
Failure of server APACHE bridge:

Appreciate any help.

Looking For Direct Patch Update for FC6

Hi Gang
I'll have to reformat my system drive again, and rather than download the Update for FC6 from the 'Software Update' method, I'd like to downlaod the patch directly. I inadvertently downlaoded the new Safari, with all the JAVA updates (very problematic). I should have left it alone. No recourse but to reformat.
Could someone please point to the link for FC6 update from Apple? I'm trying to understand the process of avoiding these so-called 'Input Managers' which could add strange 3rd party add on's, (very problematic).
Thank you
Mike

I would recommend using the Software Update app method. That will scan your system and only display the necessary updates. Then after installing one wave of updates, run Software Update again until you've got everything installed.
For the record, it appears that Apple does have all of the ProApp updates available on their download servers for Final Cut Studio 2.
The reason for my keeping a personal archive was that our editing systems here cannot be updated every time an update is released. This is due to the many different third party systems/servers that need to be qualified/updated before applying a ProApp update. And since that cycle can take a while, it was important for us to be able to keep all of our editing systems on the same versions. For some reason, Apple would only allow the most current update to be downloaded separately, since older versions were no longer supported. That doesn't work well for an enterprise environment.

Oracle database 9.2.0.4 Critical Patch Update

Hi,
is oracle database 9.2.0.4 running on Windows still supported for critical patch updates? I went through the supported list in Critical Patch Update October 2006 but there was no reference to Oracle database 9.2.0.4. Oracle Premier Support for Oracle Database 9.2 expires in July 2007 - shouldn't this be included?
Thanks

So why aren't versions 9.2.0.1/2/3/4 included in the
Critical Patch Update?9.2.0.5 is not listed either, neither were they listed in the July 2006 CPU.
My guess is that the versions no longer fall under one of the items I listed earlier. You can file an SR with Oracle to get the exact reason.

Critical Patch Updates Apr 2007 for Oracle10g Database Express edition

Hi,
When will Oracle10g Express edition which includes Apr 2007 critical patch updates will be available. We use Oracle10 Database Express ed for development purposes and as per Apr 2007 critical patch update Oracle on XP has a security vulnerabilities that needs to be fixed immediately.
Thanks You,

Ph: 513 979 9234

There are no CPUs for XE edition and the downloadable version is not patched either.
If security is an issue, you'll need to pay up for Standard Edition.
If it was the Windows-only issue from that CPU that is your concern, the other option is to go to XE on Linux.

Oracle Critical Patch Update July 2009 for Oracle BEA Releases

Hi All,
Researching in metalink about CPU's for WLS 9.1 I found Oracle Support Note #835668.1. Table 9 of this document
lists minimum product requirements for WebLogic server.
According to this table WLS 9.1 should have a minimum version of 9.2MP3.
I am confident that WLS 9.1 and WLS 9.2 are completely different WLS versions and there is no upgrade path from WLS 9.1 to WLS 9.2.
Is this table misprinted or is it required to replace all WLS 9.1 installations with WLS 9.2 installations?
What is this table trying to indicate?
Please assist.
It would be very helpful.
Thanks.

Problem in applying Jul05 Critical Patch Update(4445852) for win200 server

Whenever I've encountered this problem, I've renamed the dll that had errors to dll.o. Not a good idea for rolling back, BUT for me there is no going back. :)
However, I found the following on MetaLink, you may want to give this a try.
The best way I have found to avoid these cannot write to DLL errors is:
1. Download listdlls.exe from:
http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/freeware/listdlls.shtml
2. Shutdown all Oracle services in services panel
3. reboot machine
4. listdlls > todaysdll.txt
5. grep -i "ora" todaysdll.txt
(If you do not have a grep utility [i.e. GNU web site] you can search the file with a text editor)
6. If there are any hits, shutdown whatever program/service that owns it and repeat steps 4 & 5.

ALERT - Support for Java Critical Patch Update

ALERT - Support for Java Critical Patch Update
On October 15th, Java released a critical patch update (CPU) which will require download and upgrade to the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) release – 1.7.0_45. If upgrading the JRE to this release, the P6 module (also known as Web Access) of the P6 EPPM product line and the Contract Management product, which utilize LiveConnect applets in the browser, will start generating one or more prompts. To remediate these prompts for the P6 EPPM Web Access module and the Contract Management product, Oracle Primavera will be releasing fixpacks. Until fixpacks become available, you can use the following workaround to suppress these prompts: Select the 'Allow' Prompt or 'Yes' prompt for successful loading of applets. Note: This prompt will occur for each applet.
For more information, please refer to the following KM Documents in My Oracle Support.
For P6 (Web Access), refer to KM Document ID 1591925.1
For Contract Management, refer to KM Document ID 1592535.1

I found the answer to my own question. For any newbies out there, if you create an account with Oracle, that is not enough to download patches. You have to have an Oracle Customer Support Identifier associated with your account. Once you have a CSI that you obtain through your employer who has paid for support or through some other means, you then can go into My Oracle Support and enter a request to be added to the given CSI. That request goes into a pending state until the administrator of the CSI grants you privileges to download patches. (NOTE: You might have to bug someone within your organization to get this to happen.) For me, once I was given the privilege, the link worked as it should.

Upgrade 9.2.0.1 to 9.2.0.6 for critical patch install

Hello,
In the announcement letter for the critical patch update it was mentioned that the Oracle database needs to be 9.2.0.5 or 9.2.0.6. We have version 9.2.0.1 installed.
Do I need to upgrade our installation first to 9.2.0.6 in order to install the critical patch?
Or can I just install the patch and this will upgrade the installation?
If an upgrade is needed, where can I find the code and do I need to do this in steps (9.2.0.1 -> 9.2.0.2 -9.2.0.3 etc?).
We do have a support contract.
Thanks for your help
Roger

Do I need to upgrade our installation first to 9.2.0.6 in order to install the critical patch?If you mean latest (July 2005) critical patch then answer is yes you need install 9.2.0.5 or 9.2.0.6 patchset before becouse this patch is for these two versions (this two version already including some critical patches for previous versions).
If an upgrade is needed, where can I find the code and do I need to do this in steps (9.2.0.1 -> 9.2.0.2 -9.2.0.3 etc?).You can install 9.2.0.6 (or 9.2.0.5) directly because patchsets are cumulative.

Latest Patch Update for 9i

Hi all, can some one tell me where i can find the latest release and patch update for oracle 9i. I currently have 9.2.0.7.0 installed, can some one also tell me how to define this format of release.
Thanks

The ultimate patch for 9iR2 was 9.2.0.8.
This is the only version applicable for CPUs and extended support.
All other versions are in sustained support, 9.2.0.8 is in sustained support if you didn't get extended support (free until August 1, 2008).

Not receiving Critical Patch Update E-mail Notification Alerts - used to

I am no longer receiving the Security Alert Email Notifications for the Oracle Critical Patch Updates. Also, the instructions on the OTN web page are no longer valid (no longer a Opt-In category). I have the box checked to receive the emails, but for some reason they are no longer being sent.
