How can I track my customizations? What happens to my customizations during patching?
You should apply patches first on a test system. Then, review the changes in the test system and identify the best way to re-integrate customizations affected by the patch.
If you have registered your customized files in $APPL_TOP/admin/applcust.txt, AutoPatch reviews the files to determine if any of those files will be replaced during the application of the patch.

I do have applied the patches first on the test system and they worked perfectly. But when I applied them on my real database everything seems to be so different that I had not even expected. Am I not implementing them correctly ? Please help me out.
