Thanks as always.
Actually we have verified in certification tab in my oracle support.

We are trying option 2 as you suggested.

Acording to note id Migrating Oracle E-Business Suite R12 from Linux 32-bit to Linux 64-bit ( DOc ID 471566.1 ).

Prior to performing the migration, both the source and target systems must meet the requirements documented in the Installation and Upgrade Notes Linux 32-bit and Linux 64-bit, respectively) and
Cloning Oracle Applications Release 12 with
Rapid Clone.


1) Pre-reqs in existing 32 bit server and pre-reqs for new target 64 bit server is done (installing rpmms, setting kernel parameters)--->Done
2) Following Cloning Oracle Applications Release
12 with Rapid Clone ( Doc ID 406982.1 )
Section 1: Prerequisite Tasks of the Cloning
Oracle Applications Release 12 with Rapid
Clone-->In Progress
Verify OS requirements on target system-->done
Verify source and target system software components and versions-->done
Apply the latest AD patch-->Applied
Apply the latest AutoConfig template patch---Applied
Apply the latest Rapid Clone patches--->Applied
Run AutoConfig on the application tiers---Failed
Synchronize appsutil on the database tier

Patches that we applied;

Latest AD patch 23569686 R12.AD.B.delta.8
Latest Autoconfig Patch 27135327 R12.TXK.B.delta.4
Latest Rapid Clone consolidated patch 27102203 OAM



Issue comes here:
--------------------------------
But after applying TXK delta 4,when we run autoconfig, it fails with error as stated in note id autoconfiq Retruned Error java.lang.NullPointerException' On Script adgentns.pl After Applying Patch R12.TXK.B.delta.4 (Doc ID 2507695.1)


This is what oracle support says:
Its just an auto-config issue, due to R12.TXK.B.Delta.4, which has brought additional checks for 11.2.x, 12.1.x, 12.2.x via ACUtil.java
120.3.12010000.4,this check is failing for 11.1.0.7 DB, and hence
auto-config is failing.
 R12.TXK.B.Delta.3 does not have this additional checks.issue is specific to 11.1.0.7 DB it seems, as the note suggests.

Any plan do suggest now?Can we skip this AD/TXK delta 4 and proceed further or any idea or suggestion?

Is it mandatory to apply these patches?currently we are on AD/TXK delta 3

Thanks,
