Applies to:

Oracle API Gateway - Version 11.1.2.4.0 and later
Information in this document applies to any platform.

Goal

To upgrade an OAG installation to the 11.1.2.4.0 version, it is necessary to follow the upgrade instructions in the Oracle API Gateway Installation Guide 11g Release 2 (11.1.2.4.0) documentation.

What is incorrect in the process being used?
How can the services information be altered to allow for them to start up?
