Installing Sun Update Connection - Solaris 9
Hi,
I'm a bit new to all this, but am having trouble getting the patches added to our Solaris 9 box.
What I have done so far: (in single user mode)
#patchadd 121118-08
ERROR: This patch requires patch 121453-02
which has not been applied to the system.
#patchadd 121453-02
ERROR: This patch requires the following patches:
119574-02 119254-06
#patchadd 119574-02
One or more patch packages included in 119574-02
are not installed on this system.
#patchadd 119254-06
One or more patch packages included in 119254-06
are not installed on this system.
So -- where do I go from here?
At one point, I did a
#smpatch get
#smpatch analyze
112945-44
So then I
#patchadd 112945-44
successfully.
BUT -- only to have the same results as above.
After that, I tried,
#smpatch get
/usr/sbin/pprosetup: /usr/bin/java: not found
#smpatch analyze
/usr/sbin/pprovsvc: /usr/bin/java: not found
So, I thought maybe I needed 119480-10.
But, adding it did not seem to change anything.
Before I keep adding things, I'd very much appreciate some help here!
Thanks very much!!!

Dear Moderator,
Here is what I have:
# smpatch get
patchpro.backout.directory-""
patchpro.download.directory-/var/sadm/spool
patchpro.install.types -rebootafter:reconfigafter:standard
patchpro.patch.source-https://updateserver.sun.com/solaris/
patchpro.patchset-patchdb1
patchpro.proxy.host -""
patchpro.proxy.passwd********
patchpro.proxy.port -8080
patchpro.proxy.user -""
patchpro.sun.passwd ********
patchpro.sun.user-""
# showrev -p | egrep "123005|121453|121118|120335|121081|121563|122231|119788"
# cat /etc/release

# cat /vars/sadm/system/admin/CLUSTER
cat: cannot open /vars/sadm/system/admin/CLUSTER
# /usr/lib/cc -ccr/bin/ccr -g cns.assetid
/usr/lib/cc: not found
I'm not sure what this last one is (or where it is) -- using gcc didn't
work, and I couldn't find cns.assetid on this machine.Is that a Solaris 10
file? This machine is:
SunOS solarium.ucsd.edu 5.9 Generic_117171-15 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-5_10
Are you saying I should be installing each patch from the above showrev?
Thanks again for the help,
Judy
