Autupgrade under Windows pluging into cdb fails.

DarkwingDuck

Im try to Plug in an noncdb into an CDB by autoupgrade.

Configfile locks like this:

global.autoupg_log_dir=T:\TEMP\uptemp

upg1.log_dir=T:\TEMP\uptemp

upg1.dbname=TRY

upg1.sid=TRY

upg1.start_time=NOW

upg1.source_home=P:\app\oracle\product\19c\home2

upg1.target_home=P:\app\oracle\product\19c\home2

upg1.target_version=19

upg1.restoration=no

upg1.upgrade_node=WINUP

upg1.target_cdb=HAUS19

upg1.target_pdb_name=R19PDB3

The Problem is, that the database (running under the user "oracle") has no access to the directory containing the xml file.

The strange thing is:

I gave oracle access to directory T:\TEMP\uptemp and enabled inheritance.

Autoupgrade (running as Administrator) creates two directories:

cfgtoollogs - here, Oracle gets the rights by inheritance.

try (the SID of the datebase) - here, inheritance does NOT work, oracle gets no rights.

Therefore the xml File can not be acccessed.

Any ideas?

Hi,

I had a similar issue - the solution is simple - just use hte directory, where oracle user is allowed to create directories and write into them. You can for example use %ORACLE_HOME%\rdbms\log .
