“gridSetup.sh” Fails with “ERROR: The home is not clean”

./gridSetup.sh
ERROR: The home is not clean. This home cannot be used since there was a failed OPatch execution in this home. Use a different home to proceed.

Cause: Installation failed due to previously failed patching or upgrade in the NEW_HOME GI location causing the NEW_HOME to become unclean and no longer usable.

Solution: Delete the folder and unzip your installation file once again.

[root]# rm-rf <NEW_GRID_HOME>
[grid]$ unzip -qq LINUX.X64_180000_grid_home.zip
