Patch 16042648: ORACLE 11G 11.2.0.3 PATCH 15 : OPatch failed with error code = 255
Dear Oracle community,
I am struggling with installing
"Patch 16042648: ORACLE 11G 11.2.0.3 PATCH 15 BUG FOR WINDOWS (64-BIT AMD64 AND INTEL EM64)"
After installing Oracle v11.2.0.3 base release I installed the OPatch tool:
- delete old folder "C:\Oracle\<SID>\11203\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\OPatch"
- extract the zip file directly under the ORACLE_HOME "C:\Oracle\<SID>\11203\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1"
- check OPatch version
C:\Oracle\<SID>\11203\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\OPatch>opatch.bat version
OPatch Version: 11.2.0.3.3
OPatch succeeded.
Now I would like to apply patch 16042648 (= Oracle v11.2.0.3.0 --> Oracle v11.2.0.3.15):
- set the ORACLE_HOME and PATH environment variable
set ORACLE_HOME=C:\Oracle\<SID>\11203\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1
set PATH=C:\Oracle\<SID>\11203\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\OPatch;C:\Oracle\<SID>\11203\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\jdk\jre\bin;C:\Oracle\<SID>\11203\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\OPatch\jlib;C:\Oracle\<SID>\11203\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\jdk\bin
