I installed Oracle 8.1.7.1 path for my Oracle 8.1.7.0 database server. All i did is copying some files and put in the respective directory. Is that the patch installation???? did i do it correct ???
How and where do i check for the correctness of patch installation.. because even now now sqlplus logs in as 8.1.7.0 can't see the patch version installed in my server????

Start your Oracle Installer and check the installed products. Each product will have the current version number.
Usually, the patches are comming with Installation Notes, and include:
- shutdown the database;
- running the Oracle Installer to install and link new binaries;
- running catalog.sql and catpeoc.sql;
- running JAVA scripts if you have any;
- running utlrpl.sql.
Sounds like you miss all the steps here !!!
Hope that helps,

Just putting the files in the respective directory DOES NOT install the patch. You have to do the complete install, like the one you did for the base product (8.1.7).
To find the level of current oracle, query the following at the SQL prompt (login as system or sys)
SQL> select version from v$instance;
VERSION
-----------------
8.1.6.2.0
Good luck.
