Re: Newbie Q: Patch Set issues

Update:

I have been searching around and it appears the named Oracle_Home does not
exist for this install.  I'm thinking either it got stepped on or
erroneously deleted.  is there a way to create a named home without doing an
install?

At this point I cant really install over the top can i ?

wasnt necessary but recommended.  LOL!  Cover the bases

Thanks again.
