In this article, I try to explain how we can solve this problem for apps  and database tier.

I was applying Oracle Applications Technology ATG_PF.H Rollup 6  patch to our E-Business Suite R11.5.10.2. After apply pre-request patch while I try to run autoconfig on dbtier it was ended wihtout problem. But for application tier, autoconfig through below error message:

[applvis@apps TEST_apps]$ ./adautocfg.sh

Enter the APPS user password:

The log file for this session is located at: /u01/TEST/testappl/admin/TEST_apps/log/07082111/adconfig.log

AutoConfig is configuring the Applications environment…

AutoConfig will consider the custom templates if present.

Log file show this message:

Starting Utility to Report Version Conflicts at Thu Jul 08 21:41:04 EEST 2010

I found only one metalink note which is describe similar error for database tier. The Metalink note is:

Autoconfig Errors Out With ‘Error: Context Value Management Failed.Terminate’ on Database Tier [ID 601470.1]

For apps tier, I could not find any related note,. After I made some googling i met Vikram Das blog, he had same issue and he also log a SR for his issue. You can click here for can reach his solution.

His solution doesnt helped me. So I apply to my system lastest autoconfig patch:

TXK AUTOCONFIG AND TEMPLATES ROLLUP PATCH U Patch 9535311

It solved my problem.Hope it helps on your issue too.
