Sorry, I meant out of place.
I also just did a software only install and had the same error.
I tried it on all three of our oem installs and same issue on all installations.
I tried in on a clean install and there was no issue.
I think I'll download 13CR2 and try that out.

One quick question. Our upgrade PM pointed out that you said below you were using "in place" upgrade. What exactly did you mean by that? We don't support an un place upgrade - the upgrade process is always out of place.

I've bounced this one off to our upgrade PM, as I haven't seen anything like it before. He's based in India, so it'll be tomorrow before he even gets it. Will let you know what he says.

Oracle Linux 6.5
OEM 12.1.0.4 DB: 12.1.0.2
Single oms
I'm doing the in place oem 12c to 13c upgrade.
At 21% progress after the one-off opatch interim patches have succeeded the WLS patches are applied.
A condensed version of the log shows.
timestamp -- WLS patches found, install WLS patches
timestamp -- command to be executed /licensed/oracle/middleware/13.0.0.0/../utils/bsu/bsu.sh -prod_dir=/licensed/oracle/middleware/13.0.0.0/../wlserver_10.3 -patchlist= -verbose -install
timestamp - Encountered unrecognized argument: -patchlist=
You can see from the above that the variable for patchlist did not get populated. The installation won't move forward.
Has anyone seen this before? I don't see anything in metalink.
Thanks
Mike
