Problems loading repository in existing database.

Question

So I have been banging my head against the wall for at least two days now trying to get this portal implementation to work. Right now I’m stuck trying to load a metadata repository into a current database. The database version is 9.2.0.6. Basically I was running through the pre-requirements and I needed to reload my LDAP package. So I ran the catldap.sql. Now when I try to run the Oracle Metadata Repository Assistant I can’t make it past the fourth screen. It gives me an error saying :
“The catalog objects stored in this database do not have the same version as the database software. Please review the post-installation steps of the RDBMS patchset and make sure that you have run all required SQL scripts.”
If anyone has a clue to what the heck it means please… help me from splitting my head open. I have reran the script just to make sure it didn’t mess up twice. I have also searching through the forums, metalink, google, and some DBA friends.

ok, here goes:
1. make sure that "which java" gives you some resulting symbolic link to a 1.4.2 JRE
2. set some init parameters:
alter system set aq_tm_processes=1 scope=both;
alter system set job_queue_processes=15 scope=both;
alter system set remote_login_passwordfile='exclusive' scope=both;
3. install ldap:
@/oracle/product/9.2/rdbms/admin/catldap.sql
Check (outcome should be 0)
select dbms_ldap_utl.check_interface_version('2') from dual;
4. Start repCa:
./runRepca -OH $ORACLE_HOME
5. Use $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/utlrp.sql to compile all objects (you should have 0 invalid objects)
