on further investigation, we found that new documents on siebel file system is having some naming issue.

usually Siebel attachment will be saved like tablename_rowid_revision.SAF
but after upgrade we noticed that all new files missing revision value.


So new files are like S_DOC_CORR_1-23EUN9_.SAF



On further ticket, oracle confirmed that there is a Bug 26452153 : FILE_REV_NUM IS 0 DURING FILE UPLOAD 

it is found that, In the bug there was corruption in NEXT_FILE_SUFFIX column in table S_SSA_ID. 


on production, NEXT_FILE_SUFFIX is having a value "ActivationList" and all lower environment is a 5 char value. (ex: 4DFGT)
we replaced it with a sql update and all functionality started working.
