1.

To find the patch set level of an application (module):

1.1. Get the application ID

SELECT application_id
,application_name
FROM fnd_application_tl
WHERE application_name LIKE <application_name>

For e.g. if Application Name is '%Payables%'

SELECT *
FROM fnd_application_tl
WHERE application_name LIKE '%Payables%'

1.2. Get the Patch Set Level for the application (field: PATCH_LEVEL).
SELECT *
FROM fnd_product_installations
WHERE application_id = <application_id>

For e.g. Application_id of Payables is 880

SELECT *
FROM fnd_product_installations
WHERE application_id = 200

2. Finding all installed applications

The query to be used for obtaining this information is as follows:

SELECT faav.application_name
,faav.application_short_name
,CASE
WHEN fpi.status = 'I' THEN 'Installed'
WHEN fpi.status = 'S' THEN 'Shared'
ELSE 'Not-Installed'
END
status
,faav.application_id
FROM fnd_application_all_view faav
,fnd_product_installations fpi
WHERE 1 = 1
AND faav.application_id = fpi.application_id
AND 1 = 1
ORDER BY 1;

3. To find the location of a file

If we know that a file beginning with hello and ending with a .c extension is located in one of the
subdirectories of the current working directory, we can type:
find . -name “hello*.c” –print
find . -name “*pg.xml” –print

4. To find file version

In order to obtain the file version, the command to be run is as follows:

adident Header ‘filename’

5. Location of the .odf file

In order to check for the location of the .odf file, we need to check the following directory after patch
application,

$PO_TOP/patch/115/odf

This file also exists in $PO_TOP/admin

6. To get the file version of concurrent programs

For UNIX, the command is as follows:
———

$strings -a $PO_TOP/bin/POXCON | grep ‘$Header’

7. To find the file versions associated with .exe file

The relevant command is as follows:

cd $PO_TOP/bin
strings -a RVCTP | grep -i ‘$Header’

8. Location of .pls files

The relevant command is as follows:

PO_TOP/ADMIN/SQL
PO_TOP/patch/115/sql
AU_TOP/resource

9. To find .lct file

The relevant command is as follows:

FND_TOP/patch/115/import
strings -a ‘afsload.lct’| grep ‘Header’

10. To find .lpc file

.lpc are generally part of .exe files eg. rvtbm.lpc. The relevant command is as follows:
strings -a RVCTP | grep ‘Header’ | grep ‘rvtbm’

This gives the version of rvtbm.lpc

11.To find .pld file

These are stored as .pll files in AU_TOP/resource. The relevant command is as follows:

strings -a RCVCOTRX.pll | grep ‘Header’

strings -a RCVRCERL.pll | grep ‘Header’
find . -name poemp.odf

12.To find .ppc file

.ppc are generally part of .exe files eg. inltpu.ppc. The relevant command is as follows:

cd $INV_TOP/bin
strings -a INVLIBR | grep -i inltpu

This will give the version of inltpu.ppc. Here INVLIBR is the exe file which has this .ppc file Therefore it is
important to know which .exe holds this file also.

13.To find JAVA Files version

Find where the JAVA_TOP is
{How to find : env | grep ‘JAVA_TOP’}

This command will give you the path to JAVA_TOP

e.g. JAVA_TOP=/amer/oracle/vis51/vis51comn/java

Go to that path (directory)

i.e. cd /amer/oracle/vis51/vis51comn/java

Find available files

ls -al
You’ll find a file called apps.zip

Here you have two options to get the version of ReassignmentRule.java

A). string apps.zip | grep ‘ReassignmentRule.java’
B). adident Header apps.zip | grep ‘ReassignmentRule’
(Note : with adident, do not give the file extension .java)
You will get the file version e.g. ReassignmentRule.java 115.xxx
