Which Oracle Web Tier Utilities Patchsets Can Be Used with EBS 12.2?

The Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.2's Rapid Install delivers three Fusion Middleware (FMW) components:

1. Oracle WebLogic Server 10.3.6 (this is the "$FMW_HOME") 
   
2. Oracle WebTier Utilities 11.1.1.6
3. Oracle Common Home (Part of Oracle WebTier Utilities 11.1.1.6)

The fifth-level digit in the Oracle Web Tier Utilities version is not relevant to E-Business Suite certifications.  In other words, you can apply any Oracle Web Tier Utilities patchsets that have been certified at the fourth-level digit. 

For example, we have certified EBS 12.2 with Web Tier Utilities 11.1.1.9. All of the following Web Tier Utilities patchsets will work with EBS 12.2:

• Oracle Web Tier Utilities 11.1.1.9.0 (documented certification)
• Oracle Web Tier Utilities 11.1.1.9.161225 (Fictitious future Bundle Patch for example purposes only-- this has not been released

This is sometimes shown in our documentation in either of the following ways:

• Oracle Web Tier Utilities 11.1.1.9
• Oracle Web Tier Utilities 11.1.1.9.x

The absence of a fifth-digit or the presence of an 'X' in the fifth digit's place means any fifth-digit level updates may be applied to an EBS 12.2 environment without requiring a new certification.  This applies to all environments, including test and production environments.

What is NOT certified

The Oracle Web Tier Downloads page has several listings for other things, including:

• Oracle Web Tier 12cR2
• Oracle HTTP Server 12.2.1.2
• Oracle HTTP Server 12.2.1.1
• Oracle HTTP Server 12.2.1

These have not been certified with Oracle E-Business Suite 12.2.  You should not apply these to your EBS 12.2 environment.
