I logged a complaint with Oracle as they had closed an SR of mine despite it not being resolved.(trying to instal Pratol (sic) After MUCH hassle we eventually discovered that they had opened a new SR for me with a changed scope . But the default in MOS is to only show SRs created by the logged in user. SO I couldn't see it. !!!!
