After upgrading from Oracle 10g 10.2.0.1.0 to 10.2.0.3.0 I am no longer able
to use DBCA to create a new database. I believe the problem is the
10.2.0.3.0 patch set does not upgrade the seed database used by DBCA from
10.2.0.1.0 to 10.2.0.3.0. Thus after DBCA completes the DB replication and
attempts to start the instance it fails with a disconnect (essentially the
same error one receives if they do not upgrade their current databases after
the patch installation). This behavior is understandable given it's
attempting to start a 10.2.0.1.0 instance. My question is how can I update
the seed database or otherwise utilize DBCA to create new databases after an
upgrade?
I am running Oracle 10g 10.2.0.1.0 with the 10.2.0.3.0 patch upgrade, Oracle Enterprise Linux 4 Update 6 (x86, 32 bit, Oracles version of Linux). I've used DBUA and/or catupgrd.sql to upgrade my existing databases without problem. I've read the release notes, performed the necessary pre/post installation tasks, etc. I can't seem to find any reference to this issue through Google or in these forums. Am I the only one experiencing this problem?
