Situation:
Applying Oct 2014 SPU to Oracle DB software using opatch utility
DB Version: 11.2.0.4.0
Error:
The patch directory area must be a number.
ERROR: OPatch failed because of problems in patch area.
Solution:
Upgraded opatch to latest version.
After upgrade the patch application went smooth.
It can happen for other reasons also like if we try to apply a wrong release patch or instead of "opatch napply" "opatch apply" is tried etc
