APPLIES TO:

Oracle Applications Manager – Version 12.0 to 12.0.4 [Release 12]
Information in this document applies to any platform.
This problem can occur on any platform.

SYMPTOMS:

Error running the Rapid Install in the Apps tier, after install it in the DB tier:
RW-20004: No Installs found for this host.
Run the rapidinstall wizard on host requiring installs.

CHANGES:

Run Rapid Install in the DB node;
Copy the generated config.txt file to the App node;
Run Rapid Install in the Apps node and select the generated config.txt file.

CAUSE:

The config file from the db tier was copied to a directory with different owner as the apps tier
owner.
location of the config.txt file: /ora2 directory
owner of the /ora2 directory: root:root

Rapid Install stores copies of the conf_<SID>.txt file in three separate locations:
• Database 10g R2 <ORACLE_HOME>/appsutil: This copy is used on database
nodes, on Applications nodes in multi-node installs, and in upgrades. It is
permanently stored and not deleted.
• $INST_TOP: This copy is used on Applications nodes in multi-node installs, and in
upgrades. It is permanently stored and not deleted.
• /tmp/<time stamp>: This copy is used by Rapid Install during the installation run. It
is deleted when the installation is completed.

SOLUTION:
To implement the solution, please execute the following steps:
1. Copy the conf_VIS.txt file to a directory with applmgr:dba permission;
2. Re-run Rapid Install in Apps node
