Hi Deepak/Folks,
Another question that I have is that while doing the Oracle Upgrade on an EP server, the patches were not installed properly and I had to shut down the Patches installation after it did not do anything for a while.
Now when I try to install the patches it fails telling me that the Installed patches cannot be verified, I had written to SAP and they told me to follow the
SAP note 1862446 - Inventory
load failed... OPatch cannot load inventory for the given Oracle Home
and re-create the oracle inventory.
This has also not helped in anyway.
Is there a solution to this problem.
----------
Following is the error that I am getting when I try to Install the patches
----------
Getting pre-run patch inventory...
Getting pre-run patch inventory...failed.
Cannot get pre-run patch inventory.
Refer to log file
$ORACLE_HOME/cfgtoollogs/mopatch/mopatch-2014_08_06-14-52-51.log
when I open the log file specified here I get the following
