Routine AFPCAL received a return code of failure from routine spiini.

To reproduce error, source apps environment and run:

Metalink Reference:
Subject: Concurrent Manager Service Fails To Start With Error Code 1067
Doc ID: 434444.1

Cause
The issue is caused because of uninitialized string (New Value #1) in the registry under APPL_CONFIG.

The uninitialized key is causing Concurrent Managers not to come up. In the Task manager FNDLIBR.exe comes up briefly and dies.

Solution
To implement the solution, please execute the following steps:

1. Go into the registry

2. Delete uninitialized key under APPL_CONFIG

3. Retest the issue by starting concurrent manager service

Ran AutoConfig on the database tier:

The above did not work, as there was no uninitialized key under APPL_CONFIG.

Stopped all Oracle application tier services and ran AutoConfig:
cd G:oracleVIS12instappsVIS12_appswindows3adminscripts
adautocfg.cmd
