 Patch "22288381" has a minimum OPatch version "11.1.0.9.0" greater than the current OPatch version

It seems OPatch failed because of Inventory problem. Validate the OUI inventory with the following commands:

  

   $ opatch lsinventory  -jre $ORACLE_HOME/jdk/jre

Exit the session and try 

From the session where you are running opatch apply,

1) Did you export the ORACLE_HOME & the PATH.

ORACLE_HOME by default points to the 10.1.2 Home.

As this Patch is on top of FMW webtier. The Oracle Home for webtier should be exported.

Example:

Assuming my FMW Webtier is /u01/apps/fs1/FMW_Home/webtier

export ORACLE_HOME=/u01/apps/fs1/FMW_Home/webtier

export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME:$ORACLE_HOME/OPatch:$PATH:.

opatch  lsinventory  -jre $ORACLE_HOME/jdk/jre

Try above and check !!!

 opatch apply 22288381 

It worked for me opatch applied successfully
