How to relink all binaries after a OS Upgrade to ensure that everything is working as expected on a Release 11i or a Release 12 Installation on Unix ?

To get everything relinked and to ensure that the adadmin Utility was relinked before it is used, follow these steps :

Release 11i (Autoconfig enabled) :

Technology Stack Binaries inclusive Database :

Source the RDBMS ORACLE_HOME Environment
Execute the script $ORACLE_HOME/appsutil/install/adlnkoh.sh
Source the iAS ORACLE_HOME Envrionment
Execute the script $ORACLE_HOME/bin/adlnkiAS.sh
Source the APPS Environment
Execute the script $ORACLE_HOME/bin/adlnk806.sh


Oracle E-Business-Suite Binaries :
1. Source the APPS Environment

2. Execute following command :
adrelink.sh force=y "ad adadmin"
If you are using the command
adrelink.sh force=y "ad all"you are relinking all binaries under the $AD_TOP/bin - otherwise the AD Utilities are relinked via the adadmin Utility.


3. Execute adadmin
select --> '2. Maintain Applications Files menu'

select --> '1. Relink Applications programs'
--> select all modules to relink

Before starting the Instance, please open a new shell and source the Environment.

1. Source the APPS Environment

2. Execute following command
