OPATCH_JAVA_ERROR  : An exception of type “OPatchException” has occurred:

Can not get a list of inventory on this home.

ERROR: OPatch failed because of Inventory problem.

You get the above error when you try to do “Opatch lsinventory” or Path for Oracle Home is not listed under the drop down when you try to install using OUI (Oracle Universal Installer).

Cause: ORACLE_HOME (10.1.2) or (10.1.3) not exists in the central Inventory.

Solution: Attach (10.1.2) and (10.1.3) ORACLE_HOME to Inventory.

[applmgr@uswodapp008 ~]$ cd $ORACLE_HOME/oui/bin

[applmgr@uswodapp008 bin]$ pwd

/ebprd/appl/product/10.1.2/oui/bin

./runInstaller -silent -attachHome ORACLE_HOME=/ebprd/appl/product/10.1.2/oui/bin ORACLE_HOME_NAME=prd_1012_home

…AttachHome’ was successful

For IAS_ORACLE_HOME

[applmgr@uswodapp008 ~]$ cd $IAS_ORACLE_HOME/oui/bin

[applmgr@uswodapp008 bin]$ pwd

/ebprd/appl/product/10.1.3/oui/bin

./runInstaller -silent -attachHome ORACLE_HOME=/ebprd/appl/product/10.1.3/oui/bin ORACLE_HOME_NAME=prd_1012_home

…AttachHome’ was successful

Now you should be able to run “Opatch lsinventory” or See the Oralce_Home installation path under OUI install.
