ADOP Prepare [UNEXPECTED]Patch edition does not exist.

[Aldair Anzh]

I get the error in adop prepare [UNEXPECTED] Patch edition does not exist. Check log files.
I searched Oracle support and just ran adconfig, but it didn't solve the problem.

this may be due to database, missing the ebs_patch service

check it -> select SERVICE_ID,NAME from dba_services where name='ebs_patch';

and if it is not there, create if using apps user if it is not there - >exec ad_zd_prep.create_patch_service
