Re: Oracle 19c patching issue. Anyone else?

Hi Chris!

The utility is trying to update JDK in your $GRID_HOME directory. Unfortunately, it's owned by root and not by the user "grind" (my personal equivalent for "grid"). The solution is to change mode of the $GRID_HOME to 775. That will make it writable to the grid owner and you will be able to patch it.

Regards
