If a Patch Fails to Be Applied by pprosvc -i -p, the Patch JAR File Is Erroneously Deleted From the Sequester Directory (4898638)

Description:

If a patch fails to be applied by pprosvc -i -p, the patch JAR file is deleted from the sequester directory.

If you later try to manually apply the sequestered patch, the operation fails because the patch JAR file no longer exists in the sequester directory.

Cause:

PatchPro erroneously removes the patch JAR file from the sequester directory.

Workaround:

To apply this patch, do the following:

1. Use the pprosvc -d -p command to download the patch.

2. Go to the sequester directory.

3. Use the unjar command to extract the files from the patch JAR file.

4. Apply the patch by using the patchadd command.
