3 +For convenience, let's set the ORACLE_HOME environment variable:

6 -2) Download the latest WLS Stack patch.
5 +In your (% class="mark" %)~~/.bash_profile(%%) script, add the following lines:

10 -Update OPatch
13 +Load the variables by logging out and logging back in. (Or, you can type "source ~~/.bash_profile".)

12 -mv $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch $ORACLE_HOME/OPatchOld
15 +Let's find out which version of WebLogic OCCAS is running on:

14 -unzip the opatch file in the 'tools' directory.

40 +)))

23 -(% class="box" %)
42 +Fantastic! Now we know what patches to download and install...
43 +
44 +Let's go to [[Oracle's My Support>>https://support.oracle.com]] and download both the OCCAS and WebLogic (WLS) patches.
45 +
46 += WebLogic Server =
47 +
48 +[[image:wls_patch_search.png]]
49 +
50 +That's a lot of patches! We only need to download the latest //WLS Stack Patch Bundle//:

26 26  )))
27 27  
28 -Apply the JDBC patch:
57 +These patch bundles are released on a quarterly basis and should give us everything we need.
29 29  
59 +Unzip the patch and refer to the README.html for detail instructions.
60 +
61 +First, we must upgrade the patching program (opatch) itself.
62 +
63 +Here's how I did it...
64 +
30 30  (% class="box" %)
31 31  (((
32 -opatch apply jdbc/generic/32720458

70 +$ cd WLS_SPB_14.1.1.0.241008/tools/opatch/generic
71 +$ unzip p28186730_1394217_Generic.zip
72 +$ cd 6880880
73 +$ java -jar opatch_generic.jar -silent oracle_home=$ORACLE_HOME -ignoreSysPrereqs
74 +\\opatch version
75 +OPatch Version: 13.9.4.2.17
33 33  )))
34 34  
35 -Apply the RDA patch:
78 +Now that we have the latest OPatch, let's use SPBAT to patch WLS.
36 36  
37 37  (% class="box" %)
38 38  (((
39 -opatch apply rda/generic/35922283
82 +cd WLS_SPB_14.1.1.0.241008/tools/spbat/generic/SPBAT

41 41  
42 -Apply the WLS patches

91 +Download the latest OCCAS patches. At the time of this writing, it contained an entirely new installer.
92 +
93 +From support.oracle.com, click on the **//Patches & Updates//** tab.
94 +
95 +In the **//Patch Search//** window, click on //**Product or Family (Advanced)**// tab.
96 +
97 +Enter...
98 +
99 +Product is: **Oracle Communications Application Server**
100 +Release is: **Oracle Communications Application Server 8.1.0.0.0**
101 +Platform is: **Linux x86-64**
102 +
103 +**[[image:patch_search.png]]**
104 +
105 +From there, download each patch and unzip each patch.
106 +
44 44  (% class="box" %)
45 45  (((
46 -opatch napply wls/generic -id 36124787,36178566
109 +unzip '*.zip'
47 47  )))
48 48  
112 +Wow! One of the patches (p35908669) contains a new **occas_generic.jar** file. Let's use that to install OCCAS instead of using the one from 'edelivery.oracle.com'.
49 49  
114 +Follow the steps in [[OCCAS Installation>>doc:Tutorials.Oracle.Communications.OCCAS.Prenstallation.WebHome]] and return here when you are done. (Do not configure OCCAS just yet.)
50 50  
116 +Back?
51 51  
118 +Now let's install the remaining OPatch style patches in one fell swoop...
52 52  
120 +(% class="box" %)
121 +(((
122 +export PATH=/opt/oracle/occas/8.1/OPatch:$PATH
123 +opatch napply -id 35843968,36228321,36853044,36965445 -silent
124 +)))
125 +
126 +That was easy! Sometimes it's not so easy. Sometimes the patches require a newer version of OPatch to work. If that's a problem for you, see below for updating OPatch from the WLS stack bundle patch.
