From Note.1127593.1 Ext/Pub R12.1 Oracle Financials Pre-Upgrade Patch Supplemental List for EBS CUP:
R12.1: Oracle Financials Pre-Upgrade Patch Supplemental List for EBS CUP

The following Release 12.1 Oracle Financials pre-upgrade patches should be applied on top of the EBS Consolidated Upgrade Patch (see Doc ID 798258.1). These pre-upgrade patches apply to the Oracle Financials Release 11i to Release 12.1 upgrade.

Patch is therefore post upgrade requirement.

Bug: 8871012 definitely references: 12.0 8871012:R12.CE.B Standalone
as a solution to the problem when the upgrade script fails.
Intention must be to skip the script and apply 8871012:R12.CE.B later.
The bug update isn't clear.


Solution:




It appears that patch 8871012:R12.CE.B is a post upgrade solution. I apologise for any confusion.

1. Stop the patch 8871012:R12.CE.B

2. Reinstate the upgrade driver files as directed in note 175485.1

3. Once the upgrade driver is restarted use adctrl hidden option number 8 to skip the script cecestmt.sql

4. Once the upgrade driver is finished and the upgrade complete, then apply 8871012:R12.CE.B as a post upgrade solution.

. Use adctrl hidden option number 8 to skip the script cecestmt.sql

. Once the upgrade driver is finished and the upgrade complete, then apply 8871012:R12.CE.B as a post upgrade solution.
