The cloning process of Oracle EBS is simple but always the troubleshooting the clone issue are always not easy. Recently I was performing clone configuration steps on 12.2.5 (dbTier) on target system and encountered below listed issue:
WARNING: [AutoConfig Error Report] The following report lists errors AutoConfig encountered during each phase of its execution. Errors are grouped by directory and phase. The report format is: [APPLY PHASE] AutoConfig could not successfully execute the following scripts: Directory: /u01/ora_prod/PROD/12.1.0/perl/bin/perl -I /u01/ora_prod/PROD/12.1.0/perl/lib/5.14.1 -I /u01/ora_prod/PROD/12.1.0/perl/lib/site_perl/5.14.1 -I /u01/ora_prod/PROD/12.1.0/appsutil/perl /u01/ora_prod/PROD/12.1.0/appsutil/clone ouicli.pl INSTE8_APPLY 1 AutoConfig is exiting with status 1 WARNING: RC-50013: Fatal: Instantiate driver did not complete successfully. /u01/ora_prod/PROD/12.1.0/appsutil/driver/regclone.drv
If you search google then this error will point you to the incorrect version of perl which is not the case here.
Cause:
The script was trying to register the oracle home in inventory but its failing to update it.
Solution:
We need to ensure there are no files currently located in the Inventory directory, If there are any files in this directory then we should delete these files.
[root@erpnode1 ora_prod]# cd /u01/ora_prod/oraInventory [root@erpnode1 oraInventory]# ls ContentsXML logs oui [root@erpnode1 oraInventory]# ls -lrt total 12 drwxrwx--- 2 oracle dba 4096 Jun 16 01:34 oui drwxrwx--- 2 oracle dba 4096 Jun 16 01:40 ContentsXML drwxrwx--- 2 oracle dba 4096 Jul 15 09:56 logs [root@erpnode1 oraInventory]# rm -rf * [root@erpnode1 oraInventory]#
Execute adfcglcone.pl again and it should complete without issues.
