Some of the methods mentioned here will not work for Oracle Application Server, and they may not be supported in the future. In addition, readme.txt or other files may not be updated when applying the patch.
The recommended method is to use the Oracle Official OPatch utility like this one.
OPatch]$ ./opatch lsinventory -invPtrLoc ../oraInst.loc |grep "Oracle Application Server" Oracle Application Server PatchSet 10.1.3.4.0
Make sure the environment variable ORALCE_HOME is set correctly and -invPtrLoc points to the desired storage location.
Please note that this will only work with a full installation of Oracle Application Server. It will not work for standalone development of OC4J.
