CHANGES
Upgrading DataBase following 881505.1 Oracle Applications Release 11i with Oracle 11g Release 2
CAUSE
The <CONTEXT_NAME>.env does not yet exist when upgrading to 11gR2 database.
SOLUTION
Note: For Windows, setting ORACLE_SID will create issues, LOCAL= is how to set the ORACLE_SID on Windows.
The following environment variables must be set in order to run adbldxml.pl.
1) ORACLE_HOME
2) ORACLE_SID
3) PATH
export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$ORACLE_HOME/perl/bin:$PATH
4) ORA_NLS10
export ORA_NLS10=$ORACLE_HOME/nls/data/9idata
5) LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable needs to include
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:$ORACLE_HOME/ctx/lib
6) 'PERL5LIB' needs to be set according to Note 165195.1
On an 11i instance with 11gR2 Database, the perl version on the database tier is '5.10.0'.
So the variable 'PERL5LIB' on the 11gR2 database tier needs to be set as follows:
*<ORACLE_HOME>/perl/lib/5.10.0:<ORACLE_HOME>/perl/lib/site_perl/5.10.0:
<ORACLE_HOME>/appsutil/perl
* export PERL5LIB
7) The ORA_TZFILE should not be set according to Note 1187616.1'Autoconfig On Db Tier Fails With Error - SP2-1503:
Unable to initialize Oracle call interface'
