Hi List,

Friday afternoon I try to upgrade database(8.1.7.0 on sun solaris) to 8.1.7.4 but after few minutes I got the following message: "There are no Patches need to be applied from the patch set oracle 8i patch set 8.1.7.4.0" and doesn't go thru at all, My question is for installing any patch do I have to install the previous patch first or what? Is there any Prepatch to Install for any patching or NOT? We have two option for upgrading 8.1.7.2 OR 8.1.7.4, Which one is better & safer??
If I want to go for Patch 4,is there any comments or recommendation Really appreciate
