Is there any other error?
Is there anything in alert.log?

failover to manual upgrade? dbua can be tricky (like "found file x, will stop").

I (almost) never had any problem with dbua when configuration is correct (juts in 9.0 but this can be count out as this was the worst version Oracle ever delivered).

No Alert file generated

The alert.log ALWAYS exists. It is created the first you start the instance as your database already exists the alert.log too.
