    Interim patches and 'installing' OPatch

    Help!

    I have downloaded a Security patch (3280131) for 9.2.0.4 (I'm running on 32-bit Windows 2003) but it requires the perl utlity Opatch to install it.

    I have downloaded the opatch zip file and unzipped it and it produces an opatch file , an opatch.bat Batch file and an opatch.pl file. There are no instructions as to how to 'install' opatch or indeed if you even need to.

    Is it a matter of installing it to a specific location or can you just run Opatch.pl from the command line as long as you add the full path name of the perl executable, the full patch of the opatch.pl file and the patchset to be used?

    e.g.

    C:\> \perl\5.00503\bin\MSWin32-x86\perl5 C:\oracle\patch\Opatch\opatch.pl apply C:\oracle\patch\3280131

    Stumped at this point?
