Patch Wizard not Merging Patches

I an trying to use the Patch Wizard in 11.5.10 on Windows. I am able to download patches but the "Merge" does not seem to be working for me. I have the "Merge Options" I have:
"Automatically merge downloaded patches" = checked
"Merged Patch Name" = merged_2010050581719
"Merging Strategy" = Two merged patches: US; non-US
All requests complete successfully and it downloads the patches to the location I set "D:\Oracle\OAMPatchWizard". However it does not unzip them or merge them.
Any idea on this?

I have tried a few different patch groups just for tersting:
1. 5120432, 4255826, 4179434
2. 5120432, 4255826, 4179434, 6853134, 6804367, 5200052, 4016675, 3591687, 5140723, 8768103, 8567963, 8549599, 8542643, 8531750, 8488400, 8399189, 8364720, 6998848, 5912291, 5244165, 4429228, 9351039, 7597151, 7555553, 7534124
3. 4483674, 6241631, 7293818, 4016830, 6617445, 5565583, 6617861, 1422989, 3653484, 9062727, 4001448, 4428056, 3999182, 4017594, 3904312, 3897247, 4594570, 3618333, 4551977, 5591144
None of these worked.
I have reviewed the documents and have not seen anything that helped.

R12.1.3 - Patch Wizard no longer working after CPU upgrade

R12.1.3 on RH Linux x86_64.
Just upgraded my R12.1.3 environment to get to the Jan 2013 CPU level and decided to setup Patch Wizard to see what it shows now.
Previously I had to apply patch "10629956 - Oracle Applications Patch Wizard" to get patch wizard to work with our proxy server.
Initially I just went ahead and applied that patch again to my new config but still couldn't get past this error:
Validation Error. Please check the indicated fields below.
Unable to connect to Metalink. Please enter a valid Metalink userid and password.
Please also check if the Web Proxy Setup information is correct.
Now upon further investigation I see there is an updated patch:
Patch 16357991 for the latest version of Patch Wizard in Oracle E-Business Suite (Release 12.1)
This Patch has been Superseded. Reason 16357991 included in 11071638
I applied patch 11071638 but I still get the same validation error.
Pre-req patches R12.AD.B.delta.3 [9239089] and R12.ATG_PF.B.delta.3 [8919491] had been applied.
I still have an older instance running and patch wizard works properly with the same credentials and proxy server settings there.
So how do I troubleshoot this?

Did you bounce the application services and see if this helps?
Please also review (New Required Patches for Patch Wizard, Patch Manager, and Oracle Application Change Management Pack for Oracle E-Business Suite Releases 11i, 12.0, and 12.1 [ID 1267768.1]) and make sure you have all the patches applied.
Thanks,

Merge patch utility

Hello Oracle Experts:
I am applying around 15 patches. Some of these have pre-reqs.
If I bundle them all in the same merge patch, is the utility smart enough to find the pre-reqs before applying the patch that needs them?
In other words, as long as the pre-reqs are merged with the patch that needs them, will the patch complete ok, or do I need to apply all pre-reqs before applying the merge?
I belive it to be the case that merger will be clever enough to use the unified driver to apply the pre-reqs before the patch that needs them.
Just looking for confirmation before applying the merge.
Thanks and peace.
DA.

Yes.

The patch will work properly and complete successfully (with respect to pre-req.).
I belive it to be the case that merger will be clever enough to use the unified driver to apply the pre-reqs before the patch that needs them.
Just looking for confirmation before applying the merge.
Correct.
When merging patches, please consider the following:
- AD patches can be merged with other AD patches, but AD patches and non-AD patches cannot be merged
- You can merge any non-AD patch with any other non-AD patch
- You can merge patches with their listed prerequisite patches
- You can merge individual patches with mini-packs and maintenance releases
Thanks,

11i Patch Wizard - MOS credentials not working

Linux x86
DB 10.0.2.4
11.5.10.2
AD.I.6
ATG.RUP-6
I am trying to use the Patch Wizard. I just applied patches 10405353 and 10123716 and still cannot get the MOS credentials to work -- receiving this error: "Unable to connect to Metalink. Please enter a valid Metalink userid and password. Please also check if the Web Proxy Setup information is correct."
I am pretty sure that we do not have a proxy server and I have entered the credentials correctly.
I also used the SYSADMIN user.
The only other potential issue is that I have both "s_proxyhost" and "s_proxyport" defined in the CONTEXT file.
In MOS note 297689.1 is says that if we are not using a proxy then they should be null.
Does that mean I need to set them to null using OAM and then run autoconfig?
Thanks, Chaz

Great, making these "s_proxy" values null then requires controlled patch 7582470 what has a pre-req of patch 11i.FIN_PF.G (400+ MB) which we don't have.
I can't believe that I have to move to 11i.FIN_PF.G to use the Patch Wizard.
I have a test R12 instance where this worked just fine.
I'll open an SR and see if there are any other options.
Thanks, Chaz

11i to R12 upgrade : Unable to merge patch 9179588:R12.AD.B with 9477107:R12.AD.B and patch 7461070:R12.AD.B.1

Hello Sir,
As per readme for Patch 9179588, I am trying to merge patch (9179588:R12.AD.B) with 9477107:R12.AD.B and R12.AD.B.1
(patch 7461070). When I run admrgpch without -admode option, admrgpch completes successfully.
However, when I just add -admode option in same command, getting error that "invalid option -s". Please see below details and suggest since there is Note: This merge should be a full merge using -admode.

Patch Wizard - Support Filter question

I've installed the Support Filter on my 11.5.10 CU2 system and ran it as a test to make sure my system would qualify for Extended Support.
The overall status of the job shows Recommended=0 and New Code level=0 so at first appearance it looks good.
However if I check the job status and sub requests of my 'Support' job I see a couple of requests that ended with warning.
The first job 'Submit Recommended Patches (wrapper) shows this in the Request Log:
**WARNING: Some patch information not uploaded correctly**
Patches which encountered problems during Upload:
1. 2147366
2. 2372715
If I look a little closer I see there are some INFO lines that say:
INFO: The patch does not contain f2147366.ldt since it is an old patch. Patch Advisor cannot be used for this patch.
INFO: The patch does not contain f2372715.ldt since it is an old patch. Patch Advisor cannot be used for this patch.
The jobs after that finish as Completed Normal" but the last job PWSTATUSTRACKER ends with 'warning' and the request logs shows:
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Start of log messages from FND_FILE
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Status Tracker: This request set is the dummy request to track the status of individual requests and assign the right status to the request set
Current request id : 783826
Current request set id : 783544
783783 Normal
783779 Normal
783776 Normal
783774 Normal
783771 Normal
783546 Warning
783825 Paused
Overall request set Status is Error
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
End of log messages from FND_FILE
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
So is the overall status 'warning' due to the error where a couple of patches couldn't be uploaded but otherwise looks good.
My next step would be to submit a 'Recommended Patches' job or the 'Recommended and New Code Levels"?

Hi,
So is the overall status 'warning' due to the error where a couple of patches couldn't be uploaded but otherwise looks good.You will need to download those patches and apply it manually -- Please see (OAM PADOWNLOAD AND PAANALYSIS CANNOT DIFFERENTIATE BETWEEN 11.0 AND 11i PATCHES [ID 352212.1]) for details.
My next step would be to submit a 'Recommended Patches' job or the 'Recommended and New Code Levels"?Please see (Patch Wizard Utility [ID 976188.1]).
Thanks,
Hussein

Error - While Updating Metalink Credentials for Patch Wizard in R12

Error coming while doing : Update Metalink Credentials for Patch Wizard
"Unable to connect to Metalink. Please enter a valid Metalink userid and password. Please also check if the Web Proxy Setup information is correct."
We are not using Proxy Server. When i try to login to Support.oracle.com using same user it works. But throwing error using Patch Wizard. Can anyone tell me that why this error is coming ??

Regarding Backup as it is Application Level patch, is it fine if i take Backup of $ORACLE_HOME for Application Tier ?You will have to take a full backup (which means all the application/database tier files -- i.e. all the directories after you shutdown all the services cleanly).
1. After that I need to 'Enable Maintenance Mode' using adadmin utility
applmgr>$adadmin
2. Source Env file for Application Tier
applmgr>$ . SID_hostname.endYou mean env file.
3. Stop all Application Services
applmgr>$ . adstpall.sh
4. Copy patch to Directory
5. Unzip
6. applmgr>$ cd /u01/patch/10629956
7. After that apply patch using adpatch utility
applmgr>$ adpatch
8. Disable Maintenance Mode
9. Start Application Tier Services
10. Retest Correct.
Can I follow these steps ? Yes.
By default value of parameter "apply" is "y" so does it apply patch intest mode? I nned to specify it to "n" or should i test it first as i m doing this first time. You do not need to test it if you take a backup, and this is a small patch so you should be OK :)
If in case anything goes wrong can I restore my Application Services back using old Oracle_Home backup ?Yes.
Note: Please edit the post before the previous one as it contains the contents of MOS document and this violates Oracle support agreement policy.
Thanks,
Hussein

Patch Wizard - Details Result is empty

Just setup Patch Wizard in a Test R12.1.3 environment.
Everything seemed to go as planned.
Just chose the default 'Recommended Patches' filter
- all the Requests completed Normally
- Recommended Patches Results Page shows Unapplied=248; Total (Applied and Unapplied=346)
But when I click on the Details Icon at the far right hand side of the page it doesn't list anything?
Before I ran Patch Wizard I applied 17270136 (but I applied it hot so now I am thinking perhaps I need to bounce it?).

Yes, please bounce the application services and check then.
Please also see (Using Patch Wizard, Getting Impact Analysis Reports for some Patches and Trying to Understand Why This Is Not Being Produced for Other Patches? (Doc ID 1586700.1)).

Yes, the Optimizer Merge Fixes should always contain all previously released merge fix patches.

Patch Wizard report in ebs 12.1.3

Hi All,
I am using ebs 12.1.3 in oul5x64 . Using patch wizard to run analysis on a patch and i could go in OAM
to check for Patch Impact Analysis for Patch ...Everything works as it supposes to.
Questions:
I can view the "Patch Impact Analysis for Patch" in OAM but how can i print it out. I could not
find the print out feature anywhere or how can i use sqlplus to print out the result.
Appreciate if someone can advise or provide Oracle notes for this issue.
Thanks in advance.
Regards.

This feature is not available yet and we already have (ER 9703082 -- PROVIDE REPORT OR EXPORT BUTTON FOR PATCH WIZARD OUTPUT SUMMARY+IMPACT ANALYSIS) logged for the same.
Thanks,
Hussein

Issues with patch wizard utility

We downloaded the infobundle manually due to issues with metalink credentials, When we go to run a patch recommendaiton report (with the second filter in the list) it is still giving the error in the log:
"WARNING: The MetaLink Credentials have not been set up.
Please use the MetaLink Credentials page to enter the login credentials you use to connect to the Oracle MetaLink.
The MetaLink Credentials page can be accessed from Setup (Icon on the top right) > MetaLink Credentials link."
Why would it fail if you have already downladed the bundle manually.
Also it shows further down the error log:
"Error : Not able to download the infobundle
Not able to find infobundle in staging area
Infobundle not already uploaded
Hence Failing"

"Zip file needs to be copied to a system which can access the Patch Wizard staging directory. If the staging directory is on local disk, it must be copied to the system where you run Patch Wizard. If the staging directory is on shared (network) disk, it can be copied to any system with access to the shared disk"
"Make sure the Patch Wizard can read from and write to the staging directory. " - how can you test this?create a file by application user on the stage directory
;) APpPSMAsTi ;)
Sharing is Caringthe server side of the application isnt really a strong point of mine, the staging directory is set up to be backup/patches/apps
I am not to sure what you mean by "owner", or the application user.
here is the error log if of any use:

How Do check the sequence on a merge patch?

Hi hussein,
If I merged 34 patches, how do I know which sequence in order did the ADmrgpch take?
Is there a file in the merger that I can check in which order does merger applying the 34 patches?
Thanks a lot

>
i just thought merging is a "heplful" idea :(Hi,
Merging is a helpful idea, but unfortunately not for the purpose you describe. :) If you really need to know which patch has failed, then you will have to apply each one individually. Merging doesn't set up a system to apply individual patches in sequence. It creates a completely new patch driver from the contents of all the other patches, and applies all of the files as single patch. Since you apply a merged patch in a single adpatch session, you won't be able to stop the session in the middle and have a stable system.

11i Patching - Patch Wizard and Quarterly CPU's

I have been tasked with applying Oracle's quarterly CPU's to our 11.5.10 CU2 environment.
I have some experience applying patches via adpatch etc. but have never tried to apply a CPU before.
My experience so far has been a lot of reading, checking pre-reqs which lead to more pre-reqs, checking to see if they've been applied or not...
Seems to be a lot of manual checking and prone to error if something is missed.
I have done a little bit of work to try and start using Patch Wizard (so far applying patch to install 'Support' filter so I can at least verify I meet Extended Support requirements).
At any rate the real question here is can I use Patch Wizard to help me apply the oracle CPU's by verifying my config and providing me a list of patches that need to be applied?
Or can I not really do that but rather just get an up to date list based on when I submit my update request? Still trying to learn what all Patch Wizard can do for me.
