Enterprise Manager Cloud Control 12c

If for some reason during the configuration step, the configuration keeps on failing on the 'MDS Schema Creation' step run the following command, without exiting the Configuration Assistant:

$ORACLE_HOME/sysman/admin/emdrep/bin/RepManager localhost 1521 orcl -action create -dbUser sys

With ORACLE_HOME set to your 'Oracle Middleware'/oms directory.

It will create the repository and when you try the 'Retry' button in the Configuration Assistant, it will pass the MDS Creation step.

If you still run into issues, under the Oracle Middleware home, there is a temporary directory '.gcinstall_temp' created, with a couple of useful log files under '/emprereq/LATEST/', which might give you a hint of what is wrong.
