This document covers the procedure to upgrade the version of the JRE Native Client being used in Oracle E-Business Suite R12.
Note 1: Oracle strongly recommends that Oracle E-Business Suite R12 customers move to the latest and therefore most secure certified version of the JRE Native Plug-in on either the JRE 7 stream, JRE 1.7.0_45 (7u45), or the JRE 6 stream, JRE 1.6.0_65 (6u65). For further information about new functionality and other changes in these Limited Update (LU) releases, see the associated release notes:

To enable maintenance mode please follow the steps below:

Step 4.1.1. Shutdown Apache

If your application-tier server nodes are running on Microsoft Windows Server, skip this step and proceed to Step 4.3.
Applying the JRE Interoperability Patch for the first time is a two stage process:
Step 4.2.1. Apply the patch driver in the interop patch using AutoPatch.
If you are upgrading to JRE native Plug-in for the first time, please apply the interop patch using AutoPatch.
Note: If you wish to alter the JRE version you are currently running and have previously applied the interop patch on your environment, there is no need to apply it again. Skip this step and continue to

step 4.2.2.
Run the $FND_TOP/bin/txkSetPlugin.sh script against the web node of the application tier.The txkSetPlugin.sh script update's the JRE version information in your AutoConfig context file and run's AutoConfig to incorporate the new values throughout your application. This script must be run using the following command:

txkSetPlugin.sh jversion

Where: jversion represents the JRE version you wish to install, without decimal points or underscores. (e.g. 16026). This value is listed in the 'jversion Parameter' column in the appendices section under JRE Parameter Settings.

For example; the command to install JRE 1.7.0_10 is:

Rename the downloaded JRE Native Plugin file to j2se.exe
For example:
jre-7u21-windows-i586.exe or jre-7u21-windows-x64.exe would be renamed j2se17021.exe
jre-6u45-windows-i586.exe or jre-6u45-windows-x64.exe would be renamed j2se16045.exe
jre-6u7-windows-i586.exe would be renamed j2se16007.exe
