Read Analysis Error with Solaris 10 1/06 s10s_u1wos_19a release
A Solaris 9 host was upgraded to Solaris 10 using the downloaded (blessed) 01/2006 release.
When I ran "updatemanager" I will speculate that there are no patches to apply and that I am fully registered with our school contract.
I get the message "Read Analysis Error".
I had the impression that the 01/2006 release would have fixed this annoyance. Could Sun verify that this is true?
# 1
If the exact text of the error message is "Read Analysis Error" as you've stated then this is different to the error message "Read System Analysis Data Error" for which bug #6309151 was created. Checking that bug report suggest the bug was fixed.
The error you have reported may be a different issue altogether, or maybe just an incarnation of the previous issue. Can you confirm what the output of "smpatch analyze" shows?

I've exactly the same problem with the same OS for x86. Running "smpatch update" (not sure about the exact command, I'm writing from other computer) tells there are no changes required but seems to work. I've no update plan, just the regular Sun Online account with supposed critical bugs and drivers free updates.
Also, I'm not able to write the AltGr symbols of my keyboard in the input boxes of the registration form. I've an Spanish keyboard and the @ or the # are written by pressing AltGr simultaneously with 2 or 3 respectively. I must copy&paste those symbols from another app or terminal.

This is a known bug that will be fixed in the next release. The message appears when you have no updates to apply.
We did encounter a bad patch metadata a couple of weeks ago. To ensure that you do not have this cached, start updatemanager and select "Check for Updates" button. With smpatch - (i.e. command line version of update manager) enter smpatch analyze.
