Hi:

on SunSolaris 2.7 running 8.0.5.0.0, I am trying to apply Patchset

8.0.5.2.1. I followed the instruction and used the 8.0.5.0.0 Installer to apply the patch.

While I was relinking this patchset I received the following errors:

Error during action 'Replacing kmc.o in libknlopt.a if already present'

Command: make -f ins_rdbms.mk patchset_opt PATCHSET_OPT=kmc.o

make: Fatal Error: Don't know how to make target 'patchset_opt'

I hit "retry" a couple of times and the Installed always stopped at the above error. I then hit "ignore" and the installation continued and then terminated. Without knowing exectly if the patch installation was successful, I went ahead and brought up oracle instance and then run "catalog.sql" and "catproc.sql".

Well, right now the oracle instance is up without no problem, but when I use sqlplus, it still show it's 8.0.5.0.0 (not 8.0.5.2.x). This indicates that patch has not been applied. But when I try to re-install the patch again, the Installer says I need to have lower than 8.0.5.2 version of oracle in order to install this patch. So I am stuck here. Anyone knows the solution?

I don't see detailed error message there. For example:
