Matt, I think you should get to read the 'Maintaining Oracle Applications' manual - all the ad utilities are described therein. My understanding is that the install progress is recorded in the FND_INSTALL table and a restart will look up this and decipher what else needs to be done. As far as your error goes, the solution is to open an iTar and sit back until you get called... As I said before, Patching is the bane of an Apps DBA!

In the adwork1.log file I see, jre -mx128m -nojit oracle.aurora.server.tools.loadjava.LoadJavaMail -thin -user "USERNAME/PASSSWORD@host:port:SID" /opt/oracle/testappl/admin/test/out/p01ldjva.jar followed by a ton of ORA-03115 unsupported network/data/type or representation and ORA-29509 incorrectly formed Java binary class definition errors. I suspect that the file /opt/oracle/testappl/admin/test/out/p01ldjva.jar was taken from new xmlparserv2.zip file that is present in the patch. Being the relative newcomer at this, my question is what do I do now? It's already got part way through applying the d.drv file, which means (if i understand this correctly) that I cannot un-patch. I have to recover from the backup. What can I do to try to move this forward rather than recovering and starting over? ---- 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).
