Ok. Folks. I do really appreciate everyone who chipped in to help me out. The resolution though bizzare worked for me was an issue with host name.
Apparently there is a bug associated with install on machine names that start with letter "U". It doesn't matter if its upper or lower cased. Post changing the name to someting else and redoing the complete installation helped solve the problem. I am surprised by this as many companies name their servers based on locations (USA), it does cross my mind as WTF, oracle can't handle this.
Bug 4714774 DBCONSOLE DOES NOT WORK HAVING A HOSTNAME STARTING WITH
"U"
This bug will be fixed in the patchset 10.2.0.2
