It looks to me that I may not have installed the OUI 10.1.0.2 in a proper location. Here is what I did for oracle 9201 installation: Specified $ORACLE_BASE/oraInventory_9201 $ORACLE_BASE/jre_9201 $ORACLE_BASE/oui_9201 For OUI 10.1.0.2 installation, I specified $ORACLE_BASE/oraInventory_9201 $ORACLE_BASE/jre_9205 $ORACLE_BASE/oui_9205 Starting the runInstaller from location: $ORACLE_BASE/oui_9205 and applied the patchset. Is this OK or am I doing any mistake here? Do I need to install OUI in $ORACLE_HOME ? I remember, it asked me to specify empty directory location for installing OUI and so I specified $ORACLE_BASE/oui_9205.
