I discovered I had a corrupted oraInventory. I was not able to install
or delete software. Somewhere in the discussion with ora support the
analyst said, "OUI doesn't handle symlinks well," suggesting that my
use of a symlink to oracle_home may have caused the corruption.
I did find things like this in oraInventory/logs/oraInstallxxx.err:
Ignoring Exception during
de-installoracle.sysman.oii.oiil.OiilDeinstallException:
Unable to delete file /opt/app/oracle/product/9.2.0/lib/stubs/libc.so
and sure enough, this directory structure here is a symlink."
Is this documented?
