Hi Kathy, Oracle EBS 11i and R12 Software is 32bits only even if you are installing in a 64bits O.S , only database software can be installed in a 64bits mode. So if you look for an applications patch you should install the 32bits patch but if you look for a database patch apply the 64bits. You can find more information about it in metalink *Note:343917.1 **Frequently Asked Questions: Oracle E-Business Suite Support on x86-64 Regards, José Antonio Ruiz * On 11/1/07, kathy duret <katpopins21@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > I am specifically looking for 12i rollup patch 3 for 64 bit.
