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:

Appreciate any help.

Long term release of CriticaL Patch Updates: which database version to use?
Hello,
The company i work for ask me to mak a plan to stay up-to-date with each quarterly released CPU's (Critical patch update)
We have 11.1.0.7 databases and 11.2.0.2 databases.
When i look at the latest CPU, docid 1455387.1 , i notice that for each final RDBMS release, a CPU is relased for a very long time, but for recent releases it is not.
For exampe for release 11.1.7.0 a CPU is relased until July 2015, but for 11.2.0.2 final CPU ends already at January 2013.
For 10.2.0.5 i noticed the same behaviour.
This makes me think....
In my opinion i would never upgrade from 11.1 to release 11.2, until the final 11.2. release come out, if i want to stat up-to-date with the cpu's.
Am i right?
And does this mean that if new applications neeed in our company need an 11g daatbase, i better install 11.1.0.7 rather then 11.2?
(if the application does not need 11.2 funtionality of course)
Any comment is appreciated.
Regards,
HarryPl see support policies on pages 2 thru 4 in this doc - http://www.oracle.com/us/support/library/lifetime-support-technology-069183.pdf. CPU patches are available only during Premier and Extended Support.
Details are in this MOS Doc
Lifetime Support and Support Policies - Oracle Database Overview [ID 1351163.1]
Release and support schedule is published - see this MOS Doc
Release Schedule of Current Database Releases [ID 742060.1]
It is always recommended to upgrade to the latest database version available, even if you do not need the features. A possible option is to perform upgrades on a yearly basis to whatever is the latest version available and apply CPUs/PSUs for four quarters until the next upgrade cycle

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,
Sushil V. Tundalwar
Ph: 513 979 9234There 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 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?
ThanksSo 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. -
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.Oracle Critical Patch Update fix a list of bugs , oracle will release CPU in every three months interval.
you need to click the link which oracle has sent.
then choose your database version===then select the patch number===then on metalink download the patch
with patch there is read me file which tell you how to apply the patch on the database.
Thanks

Anyone know the below problem, recently oracle had released the Jul05 Critical Patch Updates. I managed to download the patch (4445852) and latest Opatch version from the oracle metalink website.

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 1592535.1I 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.

Error when try to install CPU - Critical Patch Update with OPatch
Hello gurus,
I´m faccing with a problem... After I update the patch set to 10.2.0.4 and install the interim patches for Linux X86_64 now I´m trying to import/install the Oracle Critical Patch Update - Oracle CPU patch!!
I´m trying to import it with OPatch, and I already update this OPatch tool for the last version even before proceeding with installation of Oracle CPU!
I've tried to import it by two methods. The first I tried to apply as described in the relevant README file inside of CPU patch directory, and I used in this case the following command:
redhatsap:orajmd> unzip p9119226_10204_<platform>.zip
redhatsap:orajmd> cd 9119226
redhatsap:orajmd> opatch napply -skip_subset -skip_duplicate
opatch: Command not found
After that previous error, I tried again but now with other method that is described in note 839182 (Installing patches using OPatch) with the following command:
redhatsap:orajmd> cd 9119226
redhatsap:orajmd> $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch apply

João Dimas - PortugalHello again Joe Bo... and all of others,
I´m with a doubt after installing the CPU patch, which is related to post-installation tasks. I´m in this momment install the SAP System and it was during this installation that sapinst asked me to install the database and all other activities after this installation that are related to the database, for example, the updating of database patches.
At README file in chapter 3.3.2 Post Installation Instructions is described the following:
After installing the patch, perform the following actions:
1.Load modified .sql files into the database, as explained in Section 3.3.2.1.
2.Recompile views in the database, if necessary, as explained in Section 3.3.2.2.
In this momment, as you certainly know, I still don´t have a database because the sap system isn´t yet totally installed (I´m in phase 8 of sapinst wizard).
I only have to do this "Post Installation Tasks" when I have a database, this database will be created after that phase 8 - so now I don´t need to perform the post steps... am I right?
Thanks in advance,
João Dimas - Portugal -

Installing Critical Patch Update
Hi All,
I need to Install Critical Patch Update Jan 2005 on my database server. I had never Installed it earlier so need to know what are the steps to be followed for the same. I checked with the readme available with the patch but nothing much is there about installation procedure.
Also can it be installed on Oracle 9.2.0.5.0 ?
Thanks in Advanced
BhupinderFollow these steps:
Find your OS version & make, 32/64 bit architecture?
Find your Oracle DB version.
Based on that find out which patches to be downloaded from Metalink.
With patch comes the readme, which provides step by step guide for patching. I don't understand why you said "..nothing much is there about installation procedure.." as it contains all steps in detail.
Mainly using opatch, you have 3 steps:
1. Check with lsinventory about any previous patch implementation.
2. Use "opatch apply" .. to apply the patch.
3. You can rollback patches.. in case of any error.
Also check any Pre-requisites for a particular patch.
If you didn't use it before, you have to download latest opatch utility, which is available in Metalink.
