Hi Matt, 'Patching' is the bane of the Oracle Applications world and not to be taken lightly. As for the question, you will not be able to apply the patch without previously having installed it's dependencies. Btw, which version of Apps are you at? Break out the docs - you are going to need them! (Help is also available in the form of another Listserv at www.oaug.net <http://www.oaug.net> - look for the OAUGnet-DBA List).

(Evidently, I'm suddenly an Oracle Applications DBA, how did that happen?) Anyway, the patch (2094819) appears to depend on another patch (2092683) that does not appear to exist anywhere I can find it. Any Applications DBAs out there care to comment on the danger of appliying the former without first applying the latter? matt ---- Matt Adams - GE Appliances - [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Doing linear scans over an associative array is like trying to club someone to death with a loaded Uzi." - Larry Wall (creator of Perl) -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com -- Author: John Kanagaraj INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services -- (858) 538-5051 FAX: (858) 538-5051 San Diego, California -- Public Internet access / Mailing Lists -------------------------------------------------------------------- To REMOVE yourself from this mailing list, send an E-Mail message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note EXACT spelling of 'ListGuru') and in the message BODY, include a line containing: UNSUB ORACLE-L (or the name of mailing list you want to be removed from).
