Solution:
After reviewing the log file sqlpatch_invocation.log:
verify_queryable_inventory returned ORA-20001: Latest xml inventory is not loaded into table
so I have executed the following query:
SQL> select * from OPATCH_XML_INV ;
ERROR:
ORA-29913: error in executing ODCIEXTTABLEFETCH callout
ORA-25153: Temporary Tablespace is Empty
So this is an indication of temporary tabelspace issue, so I have first created a “new” temporary tablespace:
SQL> CREATE TEMPORARY TABLESPACE TEMP_DATA_02 TEMPFILE
‘/oradata1/oradbx26/TEMPTD01.dbf’ SIZE 120M AUTOEXTEND ON
TABLESPACE GROUP ”
EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL UNIFORM SIZE 1M;
Then, I have made the new temporary tablespace the default one:
SQL> ALTER DATABASE DEFAULT TEMPORARY TABLESPACE TEMP_DATA_02;
And finally dropped the old temporary tablespace:
SQL> DROP TABLESPACE TEMP_DATA_01 INCLUDING CONTENTS AND DATAFILES;
I hope this helps someone !
