when attempting to run perl adcfgclone.pl appsTier, the following error occurs:

ERROR:

ERROR: Failed to execute /fs02/app/FDEV/apps/fs2/EBSapps/comn/clone/bin/adclone.pl

 

CAUSE:

The admin server logs are located under:
$EBS_DOMAIN_HOME/servers/AdminServer/logs directory

java.io.FileNotFoundException: /var/tmp/.ovdlock.tmp (Permission denied)
Caused By: oracle.security.jps.JpsRuntimeException: JPS-02592: Failed to push ldap config data to libOvd for service instance “idstore.ldap” in JPS context “default”, cause: java.io.FileNotFoundException: /var/tmp/.ovdlock.tmp (Permission denied)

This is caused by the file “/var/tmp/.ovdlock.tmp” having been created by another test iteration by a different UNIX user.
The current clone cannot succeed because the file cannot be over-written.

SOLUTION:

1. Rename or delete the file:
$ mv /var/tmp/.ovdlock.tmp /var/tmp/.ovdlock.tmp.bak

2. Restart the clone command:
$ perl adcfgclone.pl appsTier
