Failed to create package using pkgmk

Question

Hello Experts!
Im not sure whether this is the right place to post this topic in this forum. Sorry, if not. I want to create a package in solaris. Ive created pkginfo file and here are the contents
PKG = Daemon
ARCH = SPARC
VERSION = 1.0
NAME = sample
CATEGORY = application
and then ive created the prototype file using pkgproto
command and the file contents are....
!search /export/home/pp/Daemon
i pkginfo=/export/home/pp/InfoFiles
d none Daemon 0755 root other
f none Daemon/Daemon.cpp 0644 root other
f none Daemon/makefile 0644 root other
f none Daemon/Daemon.o 0644 root other
f none Daemon/samp.exe 0755 root other
Now, when im trying to create a package using pkgmk its giving the following error:
# pkgmk
## Building pkgmap from package prototype file.
ERROR in prototype:
no object for <pkginfo> found in local path
pkgmk: ERROR: unable to build pkgmap from prototype file
## Packaging was not successful.
NOTE: My current directory
is /export/home/pp/InfoFiles
The directory InfoFiles contains pkginfo and prototype files
Where am i doing wrong??
Any help would be greatly appreciated...
Thanx in advance

HI
I think the pkginfo command needs to point to the pkginfo file directly
eg
i pkginfo=/tmp/InfoFiles/pkginfo
see th examples section in
man -s4 prototype
also in the pkginfo you need have no spaces in the lines
eg
PKG=Daemon
not
PKG = Daemon
from man -s4 pkginfo
