Brian,
 
Take the subject of this message, without the "RE: ", put quotes around
it, and do a MetaLink search.  You should see 4 different documents, all
apparently relevant.

PS  The error has to do with the contents of the patch directory being
corrupt or incomplete.  See MetaLink for the details.

Subject: The patch directory area must be a number


While trying to applying the latest patch to 9i, we are receiving this
error. Any ideas on what may be causing this?
 
 
Thankd
