and THAT is the reason NOT, repeat, NOT to use the OUI to do upgrades. Do 'em manually, I've had a very good success rate that way. Never trust the GUI's. Never.

I was not able to upgrade an 8.1.7.0 database to 9.2.0.1.0 on Win2K. I had
to create a new Oracle home, install 9.2, and clone the database in 9.2. OUI did not upgrade successfully.

For those of you who have upgraded to 9.2 on w2k:

How many of you have ended up with such a hosed server that you had to completely wipe Oracle off of it and start with a fresh install (9.2)? It
was spectacular! I ended up in this situation and I sure hope it's something I did or didn't do. I sure don't have time for this when I upgrade my production databases. How I long for those days wading through
problems in unix... it was so much easier and more enjoyable... I will say
this was definately a learning experience.

And Tom Mercadante, your document worked like a charm, and saved my a$$...
Muchas Gracias!
