Update the parameter input file (apply_patches_import.txt) to reflect the paths as specified in the text file:- Create a writable directory where logs and temporary patch files will be stored. In the apply_patches_import.txt file, you will set the
WORKDIR=variable to point to the path for this directory. - Open apply_patches_import.txt, which is located in the D:\obiee11g/Oracle_BI/biapps/tools/bin directory.
- Specify the following directory paths:# Required - Java homeJAVA_HOME=C:\Java# Required - Inventory LocationINVENTORY_LOC=C:\Program Files\Oracle\InventoryORACLE_HOME=D:\obiee11g\Oracle_BI1MW_HOME=D:\obiee11gCOMMON_ORACLE_HOME=D:\obiee11g\oracle_commonWL_HOME=D:\obiee11g\wlserver_10.3SOA_HOME=/scratch/aime/work/mw_home/Oracle_SOA1ODI_HOME=D:\obiee11g\Oracle_ODI1# Required - An existing writable directory to create logs and temp patch filesWORKDIR=E:\Patches# Required - Path of patch directory till the release patch-set folder which is inside patches4fa/dist.# i;e the patch-set folder for a particular release to apply patch from# eg; /scratch/aime/tmp/ps1/biappsshiphome/patches4fa/dist/ps6rc3PATCH_ROOT_DIR=E:\11_1_1_7_1_Patches\V38106-01Make sure you points to right destination where patches are placed and home paths other wise you will get below error message while applying patchesNApply was not able to get the list of patches to apply.PATCH_ROOT_DIR is pointing to V38106-01 directory once the patches from this folder are completed then you can change directory for other disks (1_2 / 2_2)If you are not configuring SOA_HOME leave it blank it will fail at the end which you can ignore Update the D:\obiee11g\Oracle_BI1\biapps\tools\bin\APPLY_PATCHES.pl file to unzip the patches using winZip or 7zip If you are using 7-Zip change as shown below(just copy paste)From:
