Who installed application patches?

Hello,
In the definitions of responsibilities. Whom belongs installing application patches? System administrator or database administrator?
Thanks!

Thanks!Oracle Applications patches that is applied using adpatch is done from the OS (as applmgr user -- The user who owns the application tier files). So, whoever has access to this user can apply application patches. Usually, this is done by the Apps DBA.

How to install SAPGUI Patches(Silently) while SAP application is running.

Hello All,
We have SAPGUI 7.10 installed in our environment. We would like to update the sapgui patch from 10 to 12. However we would like this to be installed to all the PCs silently while sap application is open.
We want this to happen becasue most of the users will be accessing sap and we want the patch to be push silently without user interations. Please let us know your inputs on this.
Thanks
Sarin

Hello Subash,
Thanks for the reply. I have gone throught the blog. here is a quote from the blog you sent meu2026
"When we made tests with the installtion package we noticed that there is a problem when SAPGui/SAPLogon is still running. Is there a possibility to kill any GUI/Logon Process on start of the installation?"
It appears that it is saying there are issues when the SAP GUI is running. I believe they are saying that the package should kill the SAP GUI prior to installing the patch. Am I reading it correctly?
If that is the case we could get in trouble if we just kill someone SAP connection. Please advise...

Any patch need for Grid control 10.2.0.5 to install Application management

We already have ORACLE Grid Control 10.2.0.5 (X86 version) on Linux server. Due to we have EBS, We plan to install ORACLE Application Management Pack 3.0 into Grid Control 10.2.0.5.
I heard there have patch need apply to Grid Control 10.20.05 before install Application management pack into it. Anyone know which patch?
Thanks.

when you click on the tab "Application Servers" on the far upper left site of the GridControl (right next to Hosts, Databases, ...) then
you will see of which components the Oracle Application server exists (HTTP-server, OC4J, WebCache, ...). Therefore the HTTP-server is just
part of the application server - and if the application server gets shut down it's meant that all components wil get shut down...

Unable to install Acrobat Patch 9.2 on Mac

Okay..
I finally have a few minutes to add some further information to this incredibly time consuming a frustrating chapter in the life of updating AdobeAcrobatPro9.0 to 9.2.
Short Re-cap:
What originally started this whole process was trying to update my very stable version of AdobeAcrobatPro9.1.3 to 9.2. After hours and hours of trying to make this update including re-installing the application several times from the original DVD, calling in to Adobe Tech Support multiple times and getting on with Apple support, I finally requested a new DVD from Adobe which I got.
Using that original DVD I reinstalled the application from scratch which put AdobeAcrobatPro 9.0 on my hard drive in the applications folder. I made sure to fix the permissions on my system first (I'm running OSX 10.5.8). I also followed virtually every suggestion from every source both on the Internet, Adobe Tech Support, Adobe Forums, as well as suggestions from some other of my engineers who work for me since I own my own software company.
Where I am at now is that while I have AdobeAcrobatPro 9.0 installed, I cannot even update to 9.1. I am now stuck with the original version.
I am thinking that this may have to do with the languages implementation. The new install that I received from Adobe is ENGLISH ONLY. I am attaching a screenshot. All of the plugins are installed and active.
I am surmising that there is some offensive code in the updater that doesn't like single language versions of AdobeAcrobatPro 9.0. In one of the posts a Norweigan gentleman said he got his version to finally update but he had 3 language versions in Norweigan....
If I was Adobe I would investigate the possibility that there are language dependencies that are causing this very troublesome and persistent problems for many many users. This is a very known issue now and due to the serious nature of the security deficiencies in the Adobe Acrobat Pro product versions previous to 9.2, I would think Adobe would want to address this quickly to avoid any class action litigation for negligence in keeping their software properly patched and patchable.
Since it's apparent that the normal tiers of support at Adobe aren't able to assist the multitude of angry and frustrated users of this product that someone in a higher position at Adobe gets involved to actually try and find a real solution and not hide behind the excuse of not being able to duplicate it.
This is a cop out and pretty lame excuse for a company as big as Adobe.
I'd really like to hear from someone at Adobe who not only has a sense of pride and responsiblity about Adobe products there but who also has the technical expertise and willingness to launch a serious effort to fix this preposterous situation.

Compilation error after installing Sun patches

Notes for future posting:
1. When you have a question about patches, please also provide the one-line patch description. Otherwise, anyone who might be inclined to help first has to look them up. Making volunteers do extra work to help you for free is not the best strategy. 119254-73 Install and Patch Utilities Patch (unlikely to affect compiling programs)
124867-14 Patch for C 5.9 compiler (unlikely to affect C++ compiling)
124863-23 Patch for Sun C++ 5.9 Compiler (Aha!) <-----------
124870-03 Patch for Sun Performance Library (unlikely to affect compiling programs)
124872-07 Patch for dbx 7.6 Debugger (unlikely to affect compiling programs)
126495-04 Patch for debuginfo handling (unlikely to affect compiling programs)
126995-04 Patch for Performance Analyzer Tools (unlikely to affect compiling programs)
127000-13 Patch for Fortran 95 8.3 Compiler (unlikely to affect C++ compiling)
127001-04 Patch for Fortran 95 8.3 Dynamic Libraries (unlikely to affect compiling programs)
127143-03 Patch for Fortran 95 8.3 Support Library (unlikely to affect compiling programs)
118683-05 Patch for profiling libraries and assembler (could possibly affect compiling C++) <----------
119963-20 Shared library patch for C++ (unlikely to affect C++ compiling)
120753-08 Microtasking libraries (libmtsk) patch (unlikely to affect compiling programs)If you had gone through this exercise, you could have eliminated many of these patches from consideration. For example, a Fortran runtime library patch or a dbx patch cannot cause the C++ compiler to generate a compile-time error that it did not generate before.
2. Put all source code and error messages in "code" tags, as you did with the list of patches. The non-alphanumeric characters in source code and messages can be interpreted as formatting directives instead of being displayed. The result is often nonsense or is hard to read.
Notes on the command line:
1. The -xO0 option is not supported, and has unpredictable results. If you do not want optimization because you want to debug the code, use either no -xOn option, or use -xO1. Using no option is generally preferred: compilation is faster, and the generated code is usually better than with -xO1.
2. The -pto (-instances=static) option is generally a really bad idea. Unless you have a specific reason why you need this template compilation mode, you should remove the -pto option from all command lines (to use the default -instances=global mode), delete all your binaries, and rebuild the application.
Neither of these problems causes the error message, however.
What could be wrong
Also on the command line is a macro definition that appears to be -D_RWCONFIG_m
Is that the correct rendering of the option? If not, please show the command line again inside "code" tags.
I'm concerned that you are trying to override a configuration macro for libCstd, the C++ runtime library. Doing so is not supported and has unpredictable results. If -D_RWCONFIG_m is what is really on the command line, it will not cause a problem with the library.
Except for the possible macro definition issue, finding the problem will require looking at the source code. Since the error message refers to one of the compiler's own headers, the most likely possibilities are
1. A bug in the headers that might be fixed in a later patch -- 124863-23 is not the most recent patch.
2. An error in your code that worked only by accident before. I'm thinking of an inappropriate macro definition.
If you strip everything out of the temip_ef_user_library.cxx file after all the #include directives, you should be able to compile the resulting file and see the same error message. If so, please post that small file here (inside "code" tags).

Problem: installing Recommend Patch Cluster: patch 140900-10 fails

I don't know if this is correct location for this thread (admin/moderator move as required).
We have a number of Solaris x86 hosts (ie 4) and I'm trying to get the patched and up to date.
I obtained the latest Recommended Patch Cluster (dated 28Sep2010).
I installed it on host A yesterday, 2 hours 9 mins, no problems.
I tried to install it on host B today, and that was just a critical failure.
Host B failed to install 140900-01, because the non global zones rejected the patch because dependancy 138218-01 wasn't installed in the non global zones.
Looking closer, it appears that 138218-01 is for global zone installation only; so it makes sense that the non global zones rejected it.
However, both hosts were in single user mode when installing the cluster and both hosts have non global zones.
140900-01 installed on host A with log:
| This appears to be an attempt to install the same architecture and
| version of a package which is already installed. This installation

|
| Dryrun complete.

It looks as if the patch strategy is completely different for the two hosts; both are solaris x86 (A is a V40z; B is a V20z).
Trying to use "-G" with patchadd crabs the patch is for global zones only and stops (ie it's almost as if it thinks installation is being attempted in a non global zone).
Without "-G" same behavior as patch cluster install attempt (no surprise there).
I have inherited this machines; I am told each of these machines were upgraded to Solaris 10u6 in June 2009.
Other than the 4-5 months it took oracle to get our update entitlement to us, we've had no problems.
I'm at a loss here, I don't see anyone else having this type of issue.
Can someone point the way...?
What am I missing...?

Well, I guess what you see isn't what you get.
Guess I'm used to the fact USENET just left things formatted the way they were :-O

Why OracleAS 10.1.3.x version doesn't have OracleAS Infrastructure components?Because not all OAS releases were complete software versions. By complete software versions, I mean they were not a software version where each component (like Identity Management, Portal, BI, SOA Suite, etc.) would have an updated version.
OAS Release 2 (10.1.2.x.x) was a complete release but OAS Release 3 (10.1.3) was not. After release 2, Oracle Fusion Middleware OFM 11g is now a complete release.
OracleAS Identity Mgmt (10.1.4) was the updated version of OAS Id Mgmt after OAS 10.1.2 and before OFM 11g.

Installing Application Server 10g R1

Hi Experts,
whil installing application server 10g R1, I am facing below warning
=============================================
checking operating system certification+
OUI-11101: Mandatory attribute 'value' missing from glibc
=============================================
I check and glibc is available,
Please advice.
Regards

I'm not familiar with OAS certifications with regard to Business Intelligence Published but let's assume that you need to install 10.1.2.3.
First of all you need to ensure that your system meets the requirements listed in Table 1 from the certification document in my previous post. Once you have done this, you may want to use My Oracle Support document [url https://support.oracle.com/CSP/main/article?cmd=show&type=NOT&id=329361.1]329361.1 for further patching info for 10.1.2.3.

KB2918614 Breaks MDT2012 Update 1 Task Sequence "Install Application" Items on Windows 7 deployments

Consider the following scenario:
You have a WDS deployment environment for your enterprise running on Windows Server 2008 R2.
You use MDT 2012 Update 01 to create a Windows 7 Task Sequence for workstation deployment.
The task sequence has an "Install Application" task to install Symantec Endpoint Protection 12.1 RU4 MP1b.
You either refresh your reference build to incorporate KB2918614 or you publish the update via WSUS and use the Install Updates task in the task sequence prior to the "Install Application" task to install the hotfix.
In this scenario, the "Install Application" task starts but never completes. The Symantec installation executable is never called and does not show up in Task Manager. All subsequent "Install Application" tasks exhibit the same behavior.
No error messages are generated. Eventually the Task Sequence itself times out and moves on to the next task.
If you remove update KB2918614 from your reference build or unapprove it from your WSUS server, all "Install Application" tasks in the task sequence execute correctly.
Has anyone else experienced a similar issues with deployments? My hunch is that the problem is not specific to the application being installed, and it may also be a problem for environments using SCCM to install Windows 7. I have not had a chance to explore
this more, so I kept my scenario to the facts that I have directly observed.
Thanks,
Rick Reuling
Walker IT Group, LLC

Quite the few incorrect assumptions, but thank you for your input. I disagree with your methodology and irrelevant conclusions.
Problem is quite clearly seen under easily reproducible conditions, which according to your description was not correctly proscribed. No one ever said the patch did not install correctly.
Whether the root cause is that mainstream third party applications are utilizing Microsoft solution accelerator proscribed methods that a privately reported vulnerability implicated as harmful; and thus the aforementioned patch changed the
expected behaviour to the detriment of mainstream certified applications in an unattended environment is at fault is up for discussion. Jamal's experience implicates the overall method in not only MDT but also SCCM so there stands a reasonable chance
that the problem exhibits on a further scale beyond the MDT environment.
However, as has been documented on a real world basis in the context of actual running environments (in which many do indeed still run Windows 7, much to all our chagrin and your self-declared shock) the issue still exists, and we must decline
your proposed solution as being appropriate to the described scenario. Your response clearly does not duplicate nor even attempt to recreate the problem space, If you had read clearly you would have seen we had already inserted a reboot in between the Windows
Update step in the TS and the "Install Application" step. Of course there are many other potential variables, hence why one should be quite careful about declaring an explicit problem or an explicit solution.
I believe Mike Niehaus clearly indicated the next step, and Jamal has confirmed the immediate workaround. I will encourage my clients to raise the issue through their EA channel.

Can any one of you help me out

You cannot install .cod files to the Z10. It is a completely different operating system platform and is not based on Java as the old BB devices were. You have to install apps through BlackBerry World.
You can't use Desktop Manager or Apploader. All the apps that utilize alx/cod files are incompatible with the BB10 devices.

How do you install a patch file?

Hey all, this is going to sound very dumb, and I don't really know which forum this question fits into.
I've got a xxx.patch file to be installed for a project tht is written in Java, I am running Windows XP and am using Eclipse as my IDE. I've never in my life installed a patch file and there is no installation guide for the patch file at all. What exactly do I do to install it?
Thanks for help!

patch file are just diff result of a original file.
See http://www.cpqlinux.com/patch.html
Not sure where to get a Window's port of patch program though.
Your project who released the patch should have more info on which orig file it's generated from and etc. If they used Subversion, I believe there is a subcommand you can use. Again you need to more info from where you get the patch.

Please confirm the stpes:
To go back to 10.2.0.4:
1) Please rollback the patch 6600051 for 10.2.0.4.2
2) Please rollback the PSU patch 8833280.
3) Install the patches 6600051, 7496636, 7497678.
To stay with 10.2.0.4.2:
1) Please download patch # 8985450 for the version 10.2.0.4.2 specific to your platform and install it on top of PSU 10.2.0.4.2 (As Patch # 8985450 is the overlay patch for 7496636 on top of 10.2.0.4.2)
2) Please install the patch 7497678.
I want to know if it is ok stay with the installed PSU patch 8833280 - DATABASE PSU 10.2.0.4.2 for this E-Business Suite setup.
