If we get Inventory related errors for database pre-install checks and/or for filesystems,  fix them as documented below ;

Database Pre-installchecks;

Create oraInst.loc file and point it to the inventory location, which can be ORACLE_BASE directory.
ORACLE_HOME=/u01/oracle/CRP/12.1.0
ORACLE_BASE=/u01/oracle/CRP

So the orainventory should be in ora base directory

Example:
$ cat /etc/oraInst.loc

inventory_loc=/u01/oracle/CRP/oraInventory
inst_group=dba
 
 For filesystem check error ;
chmod –R 777 /u01   (or any appropriate file permissions)

Click on next 

Click on next 

If we get the error for "Virtual directory" follow the below steps.

Error:

RW-50016: Error: - {0} was not created:

      File = {1}

Solution
=======
To implement the solution please perform following:

1. Please check whether the following two rpms are present:

a. compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-69.el6.i686.rpm
b. compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-69.el6.x86_64.rpm

2. If not install them and perform relink as below:

$ adrelink.sh force=y "fnd FNDWRR.exe"

Stop all application services

3. Retry rapidwiz and then your installation will get completed successfully

Click on next 

After installation is completed we can connect to the EBS and check the version 12.2.0 and go for next step for 12.2.6 upgrade...

=============================================================================================

At this point, EBS 12.2.0 installation is complete, so we continue with the EBS 12.2.6 upgrade.

Run ETCC in both database tier and Application tier to get the list of required patches and apply.

After applying this patch, update all Database Tier Nodes with the code level provided by this patch, by performing the following steps :

**** After applying the above Patch 23705992 ***

1. On the Application Tier (as the APPLMGR user):

. Run AutoConfig on the RUN file system.

Note:

Customers using the AutoConfig Customizations feature must merge any customizations with the AutoConfigtemplates provided via this patch before running AutoConfig.

. Source the environment variables for Oracle Applications

UNIX:

. ./<APPL_TOP>/APPS<CONTEXT_NAME>.env

. Execute admkappsutil.pl utility to create the file appsutil.zip

perl<AD_TOP>/bin/admkappsutil.pl

This will create appsutil.zip in <INST_TOP>/admin/out

Note:

For exact details on how to run Autoconfig and how to create appsutil.zip, please refer to the Oracle E-Business Suite Setup Guide for Release 12.2.

2. On the Database Tier (as the ORACLE user):

. Source the environment variables for RDBMS ORACLE_HOME

UNIX:

cd <RDBMS ORACLE_HOME>

. ./<RDBMS ORACLE_HOME>/<CONTEXT_NAME>.env

. Copy or FTP the appsutil.zip file to the <RDBMS ORACLE_HOME>

. Uncompress appsutil.zip under the <RDBMS ORACLE_HOME>

cd <ORACLE_HOME>

unzip -o appsutil.zip

3. Re-run adpreclone.pl on the database tier and on the primary node of the Application tier

Note:

Since new updates included in this patch have been applied to the system, adpreclone must be executed again in order to apply them into the clone directory structures used during cloning.

perl adpreclone.pl dbTier

perl adpreclone.pl appsTier

Migrate Latest Code to Database Tier

Update all database tier nodes with the latest code, by performing the following steps:

On the Application Tier (as the APPLMGR user):

Source the environment variables for Oracle E-Business Suite.

UNIX

$ . ./<APPL_TOP>/APPS<CONTEXT_NAME>.env

Execute the admkappsutil.pl utility to create the appsutil.zip file in <INST_TOP>/admin/out.

$ perl<AD_TOP>/bin/admkappsutil.pl

On the Database Tier (as the ORACLE user):

Source the environment variables for RDBMS ORACLE_HOME.

UNIX

$ cd <RDBMS ORACLE_HOME>

$ . ./<RDBMS ORACLE_HOME>/<CONTEXT_NAME>  .env

Copy or FTP the appsutil.zip file to <RDBMS ORACLE_HOME>.

Uncompress appsutil.zip, under <RDBMS ORACLE_HOME>.

$ cd <ORACLE_HOME>

$ unzip -o appsutil.zip

Run AutoConfig on <RDBMS ORACLE_HOME>.

Note: For more details, refer to Oracle E-Business Suite Setup Guide, Release 12.2.

Run AutoConfig on the run file system.

On the Application Tier (as the APPLMGR user):

Run AutoConfig on the run file system.

Note: Before running AutoConfig, customers using the AutoConfig Customizations feature must merge any customizations with the AutoConfig templates provided via this patch.

Note: For exact details on how to run AutoConfig and how to create appsutil.zip, refer to the Oracle E-Business Suite Setup Guide, Release 12.2.

=============================================================================================

 Apply the R12.2.6 upgrade patch

8. Apply Oracle E-Business Suite 12.2.6 Release Update Pack

1.Source the run edition applications environment.

UNIX:

$.<INSTALL_BASE>/EBSapps.env run

2.Stop the Oracle Weblogic Admin Server and Node Manager services.

Applying the patch in downtime mode requires all application tier services to be down. Therefore, WeblogicAdminServer and Node Manager that were started previously when applying the latest Release Update Packs for AD and TXK for Release 12.2 need to be shut down.

a.Stop the Oracle Weblogic Admin Server on the run file system.

UNIX:

$ sh $ADMIN_SCRIPTS_HOME/adadminsrvctl.sh stop

b.Stop the Node Manager service on the run file system.

UNIX:

$ sh $ADMIN_SCRIPTS_HOME/adnodemgrctl.sh stop

3.Apply Oracle E-Business Suite 12.2.6 Release Update Pack Patch 21900901 on the run edition application environment, using downtime mode.

UNIX:

adop phase=apply apply_mode=downtime patches=21900901

4.Start all application tier services on the run file system.

UNIX:

sh $ADMIN_SCRIPTS_HOME/adstrtal.sh

FS_CLONE for filesystem cloning

5.Perform adop cleanup action.

     UNIX:

     adop phase=cleanup

6. Synchronize file systems

Synchronize the file systems using the command shown below. This action will copy the new run edition code and configuration to the other file system, to ensure that both file systems are in sync before applying patches using the regular adop cycle on the other file system.

     UNIX:

     adop phase=fs_clone
