Any suggestions?
Edited by: rootsman on Apr 12, 2012 1:36 AM

Hi Rootsman,
There are 2 possible causes for this issue.
1. Because an incorrect syntax was used to apply the SQL part of the patch. If the password for the user is not added in the command line, the rcuJDBCEngine will fail. The rcuJDBCEngine will not prompt for the password (like sqlplus does), if it is not provided on the command line.
- Incorrect syntax
+$ORACLE_HOME/bin/rcuJDBCEngine sys@<host>:<port>:<SID> JDBC_SCRIPT post_install_script.sql $PWD $ORACLE_HOME+
- Correct syntax
+$ORACLE_HOME/bin/rcuJDBCEngine sys/<password for sys>@<host>:<port>:<SID> JDBC_SCRIPT post_install_script.sql $PWD $ORACLE_HOME+
2. This problem may also occur if the password has been supplied on the command line but includes some special characters.
The solution is to stick to the syntax described in the README.txt which states to enter the sys password on the command line:
+$ORACLE_HOME/bin/rcuJDBCEngine sys/<password for sys>@<host>:<port>:<SID> JDBC_SCRIPT post_install_script.sql $PWD $ORACLE_HOME+
If there are any special characters in the password, enclose the password in single-quotes ' '. For example:
+$ORACLE_HOME/bin/rcuJDBCEngine sys/'<password>'@<host>:<port>:<sid> JDBC_SCRIPT post_install_script.sql $PWD $ORACLE_HOME+
Hope your problem gets resolved.
Thanks,
Cris

CPUs and Patch Set Updates

hi,
if somebody can help me clarify on what security patches should be installed for Audit Vault.
I have installed 10.2.3 and patch set 10.2.3.1
CPUOct2009 specifies the following:
+ Critical Patch Updates are applied only on the base release version, for example 10.2.0.4.0
+ Patch Set Updates can be applied on the base release version or on any earlier Patch Set Update. For example, 10.2.0.4.2 can be applied on 10.2.0.4.1 and 10.2.0.4.0
+ Once a Patch Set Update has been applied, the recommended way to get future security content is to apply subsequent Patch Set Updates. Reverting from an applied Patch Set Update back to the Critical Patch Update, while technically possible, requires significant time and effort, and is not advised.
So for Audit Vault, is 10.2.3 considered the base release version, or 10.2.3.1?
Should i install Patches 6914302 and 7240123 (indicated in Table 5 of CPUOct2009) ?
or are we covered security-wise and just wait for 10.2.3.2?
thank you!

Given the security and auditing nature of this product please put this question to Oracle via an SR at metalink.
This is one area where taking advice from strangers is not appropriate ... even if they are Oracle ACE Directors and such.

Patch Set Updates and the version number

Oracle document 854428.1, Patch Set Updates (PSUs) for Oracle Products, has this to say about the version number:
2.3 Baseline Version for Easier Tracking
Oracle associates a version number to the patch. The fifth number of the database version is incremented for each PSU. For example, the initial PSU is version 11.1.0.7.1, the second PSU for Release 11.1.0.7 is 11.1.0.7.2, and so on.
My DBAs just told me that they applied PSU3 to our database, which had version number 11.2.0.2.0. I checked the version number after the PSU was applied, but it is still the same:
SQL> select version from v$instance;
VERSION
11.2.0.2.0
Do the PSUs change the fifth number in the version or not?

SQL> select comments from sys.registry$history where action_time > sysdate - 1
COMMENTS
PSU 11.2.0.2.3
Thankyou, that answers my question. The fifth number in the version column of the v$instance view does not seem to change when a PSU is applied. However, the sys.registry$history view has a record of the PSU with the correct fifth number in the version.

How should I apply this patch? Should I rollback path 12311357 and reapply both together?
Thanks.

Thanks. Although it is true my grid user environment doesnt contain /usr/ccs/bin in the PATH variable, opatch seems to know where to find those commands. I have included it in the PATH but the error persists.
On the other hand I have seen lib directory under GI HOME, where libclntsh.so link should be created applying the patch, belongs to root with 755 permissions. IS THIS CORRECT? Then grid user never will be able to create the link reported in the opatch error above :
ln: cannot create libclntsh.so: Permission denied
ar: cannot create shoc.o
Permission denied
So, What is wrong?
Thanks again.

Help with Patch 20485724 - Oracle Grid Infrastructure Patch Set Update 12.1.0.2.3 (Apr2015)

Two issues.
First, the readme for 20485724 states need OPatch 12.1.0.1.6 or greater. After installing OPatch 12.1.0.1.7, there is no opatchauto in the OPatch directory that was unzipped. Cannot apply patch without opatchauto.
Second, attempted to apply patch with OPatch version 12.1.0.1.3 and receive the following error: Patch Collection failed: /opt/oracle/patches/20485724/20299023/etc/config/actions.xml (No such file or directory). The file exists but is one directory lower at /opt/oracle/patches/20485724/20299023/20299023/etc/config/actions.xml
Please advise.
Thanks,
- Matt

Essbase Patch Set Update 11.1.2.4.001

Hello,
I'm doing an install of EPM suite 11.1.2.4. There is a PSU for essbase out from couple of weeks ago. I have couple of concerns:
What the difference between downloading from edelivery.oracle.com vs downloading from Hyperion Performance Management and BI Downloads
Would the files be updated already with psu or would I still apply it separately?
Thanks

There shouldn't be much difference but you should really stick with edelivery as everything is supported through that route and Oracle Support for patches
The patches will not be applied as they will be base releases so you will need to patch.
Cheers
John

Patch conflict when applying the 10.2.0.5 Patch set on Windows 7.

Hi everybody.
I have problem when install PSR 10.2.0.5 on Windows 7.
First, Oracle Client 10.2.0.3 installed successfull. I want upgrade from Oracle Client 10.2.0.3 to Oracle Client 10.2.0.5.
I downloaded Database10g PatchSetRelease10.2.0.5 for Microsoft Windows(x32) from E-Delivery Japan Site, then used it installed successfull but new ODBC is not added.
Because of that I used metalink for download 10.2.0.5 Patch 9 and OPatch utility release 10.2.0.5.0.
I extracted OPatch utility release 10.2.0.5.0 zip file directly under the ORACLE_HOME (Old Opatch is been overrided).
Then Opatch aplly command executed for 10.2.0.5 Patch 9 but the error has occurred.
( D:\Oracle10.2.0.5\12332703 is 10.2.0.5 Patch 9 folder path. )

About patche set in oracle

i want to know the oracle release number format installed in my system i get 10.2.0.1.0 using the product_component_version
here, the last digit indicates the patch set.
i didnt understand what is meant by patch set?even not able to differentiate all the sections?
so just i want to know what each digit specifies and what is meant by the patch set?
what is the relationship with the platform to this patch set?

Patch Set is the The fourth digit, component specific release number of 11.2.0.3. Oracle Support adds new features to the Patch Set.
Patch Set Update is the fifth number 11.2.0.2.3; Every 3 months or so, Oracle Support release a Patch Set Update (PSU) to fix Patch Set bugs and does not add any new features to the PSU.
Now, you may ask what about the other 3 digits; the first, the second and the third?
The first digit is the major version, in our case 11g. The second digit is the release number, in our case it is release 2 also called (11g release 2 or shortly 11gR2) with major upgrades and major new features. The third digit is Oracle application specific number, always equal to 0 for database software.

Distinction among terms: Oracle Patch Set, Oracle Patch Bundle, ecc

Hi to all,
a customer asked me to update an Oracle database 10.1.3.0 on Windows 32 platform. THe only patches installed are **5556081** and *5557962*..
I looked for new updated patches and I founded some Oracle Recommended Patches ID 756671.1 and Oracle Patch Bundles ID 1207176.1 for 10.2.3.0.
Honestly I don't know how to proceed in the sense that i don't know if it is better to apply these bundle patches or to go directly to Oracle Patch Set 10.2.4.0 or 10.2.5.0 for a better update.
What is the difference between Oracle Patch Bundle and Oracle Patch Set?? and the difference between Oracle patch Set and Oracle Patch Set Update???
Any help will be well appreciated..I need to do this update asap
Thanks in advance

Pl clarify what you mean by "10.1.3.0", "10.2.3.0", "10.2.4.0" and "10.2.5.0" - there a no such Oracle versions
I believe you mean 10.1.0.3, 10.2.0.3, 10.2.0.4 and 10.2.0.5
If so, all of the above are patch sets on top of the base release (10.1 or 10.2). It is always recommended to update to the latest patch set release.
Pl note that both 10.1 and 10.2 are de-supported - you should be using the latest 11gR2 version.
Patch set updates (PSU) are additional bundled fixes on top of patch sets - see this MOS Doc
Patch Set Updates for Oracle Products [ID 854428.1]

Installation of Patch Set 9.2.0.7 on Windows XP Pro SP2 fails

When I tried to apply patch set 9.2.0.7 to my 9.2.0.5 installation on a computer with MS Windows XP Pro SP2, shortly after the selection of the target Oracle home directory the installer told me to shut down a large number of Windows processes (like RAS, RPC, etc., about 30 in total) that are not related at all to the installation.
Am I getting anything wrong? Or is this a bug (as I would suspect)?

You are facing an annoying problem with Oracle installation on Windows.
It seems, some files are locked by
other processes than the Installer process.
The following workaround worked (for me):
Temporarily remove the reference to the Oracle Home at system startup
1. Rename the Oracle Home \bin directory to \bin_save
2. Reboot the system
3. Rename the bin_save directory back to bin again
4. Start patch installation again

Do I need a patch set?

I am working to install OAM 10.1.4.0.1 to accomplish an IIS SSO integration. I have installed the 10.1.4.0.1 Idendity Server and WebPass on a windows install of OID. Looks like I now need to install Policy Manager and Access Server as well. Finally I will be able to install and configure the IIS WebGate to get SSO functionality. It is my impression I need the 10.1.4.2.0 patch set for this to all work. I am looking at the download page and see the "Oracle Adaptive Access Manager 10g (10.1.4.2.0)" and the "Oracle Virtual Directory 10.1.4.2 Patchset". I do not see an OIS 10.1.4.2 patchset. Can someone please provide some guidance on this.
Thanks,
John

IIS SSO will work on OAM 10.1.4.0.1.
10.1.4.2.0. is a full patch set that you can apply to all components. Many folks are running 10.1.4.0.1 in production today.
You don't need to touch OVD or OAAM based on your stated goal.

Problem running Sample Application after intalling patch set 4.0.2.00.07

We just applied the patch set 4.0.2.00.07 on our TEST environment APEX4.0.
Now I can't run the sample application. When I run the application, login using either the admin or the demo user with the #lower_case_workspace_name#", the browser is generating below error message:
ORA-06550: line 2, column 8: PLS-00201: identifier 'CUSTOM_AUTH' must be declared ORA-06550: line 2, column 1: PL/SQL: Statement ignored
Error ERR-10460 Unable to run authentication credential check function.
The sample application works fine on our DEV environment APEX 4.0.0.00.46 *without* the patch set 4.0.2.00.07.
Does anyone have an idea how to resolve this
Thanks

Varad -
I see that these functions are missing on the TEST environment parsing schema. I will have our DBA rectify the issue.
Thanks,
DP
