    apply patch using opatch

    Hi all,

    I am on Linux 2.1 and trying to upgrade the security patches 68 on 9.2.0.5


    any way, below is the error I got

    [oracle@test 3811906]$ /home/oracle/DBA_STUFFS/patches/opatch/OPatch/opatch apply
    PERL5LIB=/home/oracle/product/9.2.0/Apache/perl/lib/5.00503:/home/oracle/DBA_STUFFS/patches/opatch/OPatch/perl_modules; export PERL5LIB
    /home/oracle/product/9.2.0/Apache/perl/bin/perl /home/oracle/DBA_STUFFS/patches/opatch/OPatch/opatch.pl apply


    OPatch Version 1.0.0.0.45
    Perl Version 5.00503


    Performing pre-patch installation checks.

    general_options is set to 0

    OPatch can't find command 'fuser'.

    Some commands below are not in your path:
    Command= fuser
    Path= /usr/kerberos/bin:/opt/IBMJava2-131/bin:/opt/IBMJava2-131/jre/bin:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/home/oracle/bin:/home/oracle/product/9.2.0/bin:/home/oracle/bin

    ERROR: OPatch failed because of Path problem.




    it looks for fuser but when I go to /usr/sbin/ I can't find it

    See if it's in your path...
    # which fuser

    If it's not in your path,
    # find / -type f -name fuser

    then put it in your path.

    At lease on HP, you need to: chmod go+x /usr/sbin/fuser

    Jeff,


    thanks for your advises and I have another question since I am 100% clear of what I need to do.

    ok, I have to use the patch for opatch and any way it would be something like this:

    [oracle@test 3811906]$ pwd
    /home/oracle/DBA_STUFFS/patches/security68_1/3811906



    [oracle@qhoudb03 3811906]$ /home/oracle/DBA_STUFFS/patches/opatch/OPatch apply


    and now I understand that I have to put the patch of fuser into this command as well, the question is "where to I put the path for fuser?" BTW, the path of my fuser is in /sbin/fuser/


    thanks

    export PATH=$PATH:/sbin

    Then do which fuser and it will return you the directory fuser is in so you know you did it correctly

    then go to the Patch directory (not the opatch directory) and do

    /path_to_opatch/opatch apply
