Start Oracle Internet Directory failing... server context is null

Question

I'm trying to install Oracle Internet Directory on a RHEL5 64 bit for the first time.
The database (11.2.0.3), Weblogic (10.3.6), and OID (11.1.1.6) have all installed okay, and I'm running the config.sh script.
I specify 'Creating the schema' and enter in the SYS credentials. The installation goes fine but fails to "Start Oracle Internet Directory" at the configure component stage.
I can see in the oraInventory/log/install-xxxxx.log

I notice that Metalink ID: " FMW 11g Oracle Internet Directory Configuration Process Fail: Error Creating Ascomponent Oid1 [ID 1289015.1]" refers to IPV6. I only have IPV4 enabled. Is IPV6 a mandatory requirement for OID?
Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

I downloaded the RCU 11.1.1.6 patch (13517109) and it ran fine this way (after a drop/create on the OID schemas).
Obviously running the {Middleware_Home}/Oracle_IDM1/bin/rcu file isn't the way to do it. I'll pay closer attention next time....
Thanks for your help.
