Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: 9.2.0.6 for win32
As Paul mentioned, www.sysinternals.com has utility called "listdlls.exe" which has come very handy for us to identify which Oracle dlls are in use, and patches can't be applied.

There were a lot of locked files. I could dig out the list from the =3D logfile but it was 10 or more. Can this thing just be disabled until =3D the install is completed?

Donald,
The OS service "microsoft distributed transaction coordinator" is a likely suspect. Other usual suspects include backup software agents and any application servers running on that host.
The site "SysInternals.com" has a wealth of tools for finding things like processes that own handles on files, such as handle.exe and procexp.exe. It is most likely that the file that was locked was "ociw32.dll"=3D20 under the %ORACLE_HOME%\bin directory. http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/freeware/procexp.shtml
the above page contains a link to the following article: http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q232/8/30.ASP
Please be aware, that the patchset 9.2.0.6 for win32 is not in itself a solution for Oracle Security Alert #68, as described in the FAQ and patchset matrix notes on Metalink. Other one-off patchsets may also need to be applied.
