Cannot Compose (Window Blank) UWC after -60
After applying the messaging -60 Sparc patch (specifically, after fixing the diff conflicts, and installing newconfig) - the UWC compose window came up empty.
During the patch install I overwrote several files, and applied LDIFs.
I tried to uninstall-newconfig but got an error about util.pl - I tried putting util.pl in my path and ld library path.
# ./uninstall-newconfig /usr/local/opt/SUNWmsgsr/install/patch/118207-60
Can't locate util.pl in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/local/opt/SUNWmsgsr/install/patch/118207-60/backout/lib /usr/perl5/5.6.1/lib/sun4-solaris-64int /usr/perl5/5.6.1/lib /usr/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/sun4-solaris-64int /usr/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1 /usr/perl5/site_perl /usr/perl5/vendor_perl/5.6.1/sun4-solaris-64int /usr/perl5/vendor_perl/5.6.1 /usr/perl5/vendor_perl .) at ./uninstall-newconfig line 173.
I kept a list of the files overwritten by newconfig, and reverted to what was in save - though on several (around 7 files), the original file wasn't there. It was just the .new version and a .script file. The output did say overwrite - but perhaps these were really new files?
So, after all that copying over, deleting cache & restarting the ws, the compose window comes back up (relief).
Any idea what the problem was?
Could my diff fixes have been wrong? I really just deleted any of the notations (e.g. <<<, >>>, ===, .new & .html, references etc.) to make the file flow. Everything else seemed to work ...
Why does a msg patch affect the UWC compose window?
Why did uninstall-newconfig fail?
Addt'l info: For some reason, maybe the day? ... I had to re-apply the patch for my diff fixes to be applied, it was missing some file the initial patch application generates
I'd applied the patch for the first time a week or so earlier. And had run the newconfig script several times to get a list of the diff conflicts. But after fixing the diffs, they would not apply. I re-ran the patch install, and re-fixed the diffs, then it applied.
Thanks,
