patch problem

[yyghp]

I am going to install oracle 10g, which requires to have such patch installed first:
PHSS_26793 S700-800 11.X +O4/PBO Compiler B.11.11.04 cumulative patch

But when I tried to load this patch, I couldn't pass the Analysis phase:

The patch fileset "PHSS_26793.LANG-AUX,r=1.0" may only be installed upon a previously installed base fileset. The specification for this base fileset is "Auxiliary-Opt.LANG-AUX,fr=B.11.11.04,v=HP". Since there is no fileset on the target or selected from the source which matches this specification, fileset "PHSS_26793.LANG-AUX,r=1.0" will be excluded.

So, what can i do to load such patch which required for 10g upgrade ?
Thanks!

Do you have the HP C-ANSI-C product installed? This is where the Auxiliary-Opt.LANG-AUX (/opt/langtools) software comes from. If you don't have it, you'll need to purchase it from HP.

Here is the patch info for your patch

It appears you need to load this Fileset:

Filesets:
Auxiliary-Opt.LANG-AUX,fr=B.11.11.04,fa=HP-UX_B.11.00_32/64,v=HP

Hi,

You need to have "C-ANSI-C B.11.11.04" Compiler installed before the patch installation.

I had installed ansi c compiler before, not B.11.11.04, but B.11.11.06 instead.

# swlist -l product | grep -i ansi
C-ANSI-C B.11.11.06 HP C/ANSI C Compiler

While oracle 10g asks me to load these 2 HP patches before the 10g installation:

PHSS_26792 S700_800 11.X ANSI C Compiler B.11.11.04 cumulative patch
PHSS_26793 S700-800 11.X +O4/PBO Compiler B.11.11.04 cumulative patch

But when I tried to load them, got the same results: analysis failed, cannot install

here's the message for PHSS_26792
NOTE: The patch fileset "PHSS_26792.C,r=1.0" may only be installed

So, does it means i don't need to load these 2 patches ?

[Patrick Wallek · Accepted solution]

Correct! Those 2 patches are only for B.11.11.04 of the Ansi C compiler. Since you have B.11.11.06 installed you don't need those patches.

However, you probably should install patch PHSS_28706 which is the "ANSI C compiler B.11.11.06 cumulative patch"

You can have a look at the patch here:

Hmm.. I find it hard to believe that to install Oracle 10g, one has to purchase HP's C compiler??

[Trond Haugen]

1. You can't patch something that isn't installed
2. Several years ago you HAD to have a compiler in order to install Oracle. I belive nowadays you only need it if you do "advanced things" with Oracle. (I'm on thin ice here.)
