Check /tmp mount point free space & permission

Oh Sorry for miss.

Can you confirm you "newtmp" current working directory?

can you post your log file details?

Thanks

Thanks all,

The problem has been resolved now.

I had unzipped the patch again.

and created a dir under the name of /newtmp again.
change the owner and group to oracle:oinstall ad chmod to 777.
adn export the tmp to /newtmp.
