Solaris 10 ip configuration lost problem

Dear all, I have a very strange problem with the ip configuration, ervery time I finish a permenent IP address configuration and restart the system, then I cannot login the graphic interface and need to turn to failsafe session and clear /etc/hosts, /etc/netmasks, /etc/inet/ipnodes information which relate to the new ip address I want to use, then I can login in the graphic interface, but the ip configuration should be re-config again.
Below steps had been down:
Forx example:
Configure bge0 IP address: 192.168.1.10 255.255.255.0
Servername:ServerXXX
1. /etc/hostname.bge0
ServerXXX
2. /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost loghost
192.168.1.10 ServerXXX
3. /etc/netmasks
192.168.1.10 255.255.255.0
4. /etc/inet/ipnodes
192.168.1.10 ServerXXX
5. ifconfig bge0 192.168.1.10 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
6. sync;sync;sync
7. shutdown -y -g0 -i6
8. While the system restart, I cannot login the graphic interface and need to turn to failsafe session and clear /etc/hosts, /etc/netmasks, /etc/inet/ipnodes information which relate to the new ip address I want to use (192.168.1.10), then I can login in the graphic interface, but the ip configuration should be re-config again.
Please tell me what to do and feel free to give some suggestions.
Thanks a lot.

The contents of the /etc/netmasks file is incorrect.
you have 192.168.1.10 255.255.255.0
should be 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0
you have an ip address and a netmask that conflict, fix it and it will work

Log-Configuration.xml Problems

Hi, I have been trying to use log-configuration.xml but it seems like i cannot get it to work at all.
From what i understand, once i deploy my application, i should be able to edit the config via the Visual Administrator. However, after i deploy my app, i am still unable to see it with visual administrator. furthermore, i cannot find the file anywhere on the sever. Also, my settings are not reflected in the behaviour of the defaultTrace.
Am i suppose to be able to find the "log-configuration.xml" file in the server if i have done the correct steps? If so, what are the likely mistakes i have made? I am at my wits end, anyone can help me?
Just to add, this post seems to describe exactly my situation except i have no idea how to "manually" correct it... log-configuration.xml outside META-INF due to NWDS
TIA!

Hi Rajeshkr,
Sorry, i am kinda new to web dynpro and sap in general so i may need you to be more explicit
I am not quite sure what this part means or how to check "...has been deployed successfully in the deploy node of the visual Node and check for the Log Configuratior Node and check for your deployed application...."
What i did do is go to the server to and search the entire directory structure for the log-configuration.xml but could not find it. Also, the config cannot be seen via the log-configurator in visual administration engine which its supposed too i think. and lastly the behavoiur i set in the log-configuration.xml is not reflected in the defaultTrace
Then i saw this post so i went to check the EAR file in my workspace and found that it was just like Manik described.
Maybe u could check this link where i posted more about my problem Log-Configuration.xml Problems
I would love to award points if it helps

Connection lost problem while updating my Nokia As...

Dear All,
I face a connection lost problem while I am updating Nokia Asha 200 using Nokia Suite
I installed Nokia software too many times, and tried to repair it. Also, I used another USB cable, but the problem still happen
While it is installing the software, it suddenly stops and show connection lost to your phone.
When I try to restart and reconnect the USB cable, the problem still happen
Nokia200
V 10.61

RM-761
Thanks in advance

Dear Farby
Thanks for your kind and quick reply.
please note that I tried again now, and when the messages for connection lost appears again, I waited for 5 minutes, and nothing happens
because it shows me to do steps, as follows :
1. Disconnect USB cable from phone.
2. restart your phone
3. reconnect the USB cable
4. Wait for the installation to continue.
and when I do these steps, the phone restarts in a test mode, all I see is a test mode message over its screen.
I believe that this is a fatal error which happens through the installation process and which leads to unsuccessful installation
I lost hope in updating the software of this phone, escaially I need to do so, because I face problems with these phone, which doing a hard reset even don't fix.
Thanks again, Farby ... for your help

Solaris 10 x86 installation problem on ProLiant DL380..

I'm trying to put Sol10 b72 on a dual-proc ProLiant DL380 here, with the Compaq 5i array controller.
I have the Solaris 9 drivers from HP; they seem to work just fine for the installation.
The problem comes at the end of the first disc.
Sidebar:
For one thing (and this drove me NUTS until I got lucky and caught it during a reboot), at the end of the install, on the console, it asks for the driver diskettes..again.
The problem is, it doesn't say this ANYWHERE else, only on the console..and if you're doing the installation in the X desktop, you just never know it. It doesn't write this to the xconsole window. I tried installing a good 5-6 times before, instead of hitting the power button out of frustration after the install just hung again, I actually opened up a terminal and typed 'reboot'..and caught the "Please insert the diskette and press Enter" as it killed X. If anyone at Sun is reading this..you may want to fix this, before someone gets very frustrated that their installations never seem to finish...
End Sidebar.
So...I'm doing the console text install (otherwise you'll never see the message to insert the driver diskettes for the Broadcom NIC and the Compaq array), and sure enough, at the end of the install, it asks for the diskette. I pop in the diskette it's specifically asking for (the Compaq array diskette in this instance), and hit enter. It chugs for a second and then says it can't find the driver on the diskette.
Which is incorrect, because if it haden't found it on the diskette during the device configuration assistant phase during bootup, it wouldn't have even been able to install Solaris.
So..what's up? Anyone have any ideas why Solaris finds it one time but can't find it later? Is this a bug or problem in the installation script?
Thanks,
Greg

problem 1 is that it's looking for ../../s0.. Which I
managed to
fake out by creating the dir in the same mount
point.
Problem 2 is that it can't find .tmp_proto, which I
must
concur with. I can't find that on any of the b72 cd
images.
So, the setup_install_server fails.This seems to be the problem when you try to setup an install
server on a Solaris SPARC system for Solaris x86 clients, using
the Solaris 9 or Solaris 10/Express CD media.
There's a Solaris x86 UFS filesystem on slice 0 on the CD media,
and it's supposed to be mounted on the "s0" mount point,
otherwise setup_install_server won't work. On a Solaris x86 box,
vold mounts it automatically for you: /cdrom/cdrom0/s2 is the
mount point for the platform independant ISO9660 part of the CD
media, /cdrom/cdrom0/s0 is the UFS root filesystem.
Problem is that Solaris SPARC:
- does not understand Solaris x86 disk labels
- does not allow mounting x86 UFS filesystems
(and vice versa).
AFAIK, Solaris 9 DVD media does not have this problem. I
guess the same will be true when Solaris 10 DVD media is
available in a few months. On the DVD media there's enough
free space to include an extra copy of the files in the ISO9660
filesystem.

Web configuration lost when upgrading to advanced server admin

Hello,
after setting correctly the basic configuration,and setting the web servives, we did the upgrade to advanced option and then we focues to other apple problems like getting network connection, starting xgrid,etc), and then is when we realized that the web settings, server name, etc were lost when we moved to the advanced server admin.
grrrrr!
any idea?
thanks

I would most emphatically recommend that you get your boss to sign off on you having no liability nor culpability for any results of work he expects you to do "on the side".
People study and learn for years - and appropriately so ! - in order to accomplish this kind of work effectively and efficiently.
If you are learning and have a non-production environment to work with and potentially wipe & reinstall where need be, then by all means, go for it (start learning).
But otherwise your boss should accept that s/he is getting what they're paying for, and since it is nothing, they should be prepared for that.
It is neither technically nor professionally advisable to foist a task such as this on someone and expect the result(s) to be that of a trained professional in that field. The fundamental concern is the disconnect there, and the unacceptable risk this situation could put you in, either now or in the future.
To the matter at hand, I generally recommend strongly against an upgrade, as compared to a (verified good) backup, wipe and reinstall and configure from the outset as "Advanced."
For computer management, you will want to run your server as an Open Directory Master,
and as such, you must must must have verified working DNS lookup(s) for your server's FQDN, prior to proceeding with re-installing & reconfiguring it.

Solaris 8 container install problem using Ultra 60 flash archive

Hi
I have an M4000 configured with a Solaris 8 container.
I am using a flash archive from an Ultra 60.
Below is the problem when I install.
# zoneadm -z f714clone install -u -a /var/flar/fid714_20090515.flar
Log File: /var/tmp/f714clone.install.26921.log
Source: /var/flar/fid714_20090515.flar
Installing: This may take several minutes...
Postprocessing: This may take several minutes...
WARNING: zone did not finish booting.
Last entry in the logfile is...
[Fri May 15 12:21:22 BST 2009] Postprocess: Performing zone sys-unconfig
It just sits at the WARNING doing nothing.
I connected to the container console using "zlogin -C f714clone" but this just gives me a blank screen with no output and unable to do anything.
I used a different archive from a V120 and had no problems.
Is there something I need to configure for a Ultra 60.
Thanks in advance.
Steve.

I got this to work. It seems, for whatever reason, that it doesn't like the '-u' flag for an Ultra 60. I installed using '-p' instead and it was fine, it even came up with the new IP I had assinged.
zoneadm -z QeSun01b install -p -a qesun01.flar

Solaris installation related questions/problems

I've recently purchased Sun's Solaris 8 OE media kit 2/02.
I tried installing them on two computers and experienced the following problems:
On my Pentium 3, I get the following messages when during the first steps of installation:
Determining bus types and gathering hardware configuration data...
Warning:Resource Conflict - both devices are added
NON-ACPI device: PNP0C01
Memory: 9FC00-9FFFF, FFE0000-FFF7FFF,FFF8000-FFFFFFFF,

ACPI device: ISY0050
Port: 3F0-3F1,3F2-3F3,3F4-3F5;IRQ:6;6JDMA:2
Most surprisingly, the installation worked!!!
However, if anyone understands what the above means, its implications or other important information, I'd like to hear it and its workarounds if any.
On my newly purchased Pentium 4, I had to first remove my Ethernet card to prevent system boots during installation. My problem is that I have some hardware conflicts.
I have a "15 LCD monitor from LG.
Display adapters: ASUS vn179 DDR v28.32
GeForce 4 MX 440 64 MB BV17 Internal (MV)
I think that these two are causing the problem.
As a result, I cannot install Solaris with the windowing system.
I cannot see these types when choosing hardware devices.
Please advise on this matter.
I tried choosing some other hardware from the configuration list but the installation halted.
Am I doomed with this computer not having Solaris on it?
Last is a matter of Solaris residing on a single harddisk with other OS.
I want to have Solaris, Redhat Linux 7.3 and Windows XP Professional.
In what order should I install the OSs?
Is it recommended to make partitions before any of the above installations take place?
Which OS should go into each partition if it makes a difference?
P.S.
I'm a total newbie to Solaris and plan doing some Java programming on it.
So using a GUI is absolutely essential to me.

Hi TH,
You can install UPK server with WS 2008 R2 SP1 without any issues(may it be standard or enterprise edn.). Oracle database 11.2.0.4 can be used as well.
You can refer the installation guide for version 12.1 incase you have any queries.
You would only need to open the database port(eg 1527) or so on the subject server. There are no other specific port opening requirement on the firewall (port 80 must be open as well, but mostly it is not blocked on servers).
Let us know if you have any further queries or if you have any issues.

SD

Solaris 2.6 install problems

Yes, I know 2.6 is an antique, but without going into a lot of boring details, it's what I'm stuck with.
Anyway, I have been trying to load 2.6 to an Ultra10, specifically to start fresh and re-partition the drive for my own evil purposes. I am using the 2.6 cdrom.
I am able to indentify the system, etc., with no problems until this:
Executing SolStart preinstall phase...
Executing begin script "install_begin"...
Begin script install_begin execution completed
Exiting (caught signal 8)
Type suninstall to restart
When I type suninstall, I loop back to the beginning, indentify the system and time zone, and then back to this same place. What's up?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Phil

Thanks a lot...!!!You made our day....it worked for us!!!
Rohini.
Hi,
We had the same problem, on solaris 8 trying to install the enterprise version of 9iAS, it stopped at 30% and in the log file was the OutOfMemory exception you mentioned.
The solution we found was to give the installer (OUI) more memory!!! The JRE that executes the OUI was configured to use a maximum of 32MB for the memory allocation pool (see $ORACLE_BASE/jre/1.1.8/jre_config.txt about -mx option) which doesn't seem to be enough!
This parameter can be modified for OUI in the following file:
$ORACLE_BASE/oui/oraparam.ini
change the following parameter:
JRE_MEMORY_OPTIONS=" -mx32m"
we found that
JRE_MEMORY_OPTIONS=" -mx64m"
was enough, but you have to be patient! We got other errors but we got as far as the configuration wizards.
hope this helps, Takeshi.

Solaris 8 Intel install problems

I'm a noob to this, I try to install the Solaris 8 Intel on AMD XP as second os (XP Pro 1st os) but failed. I get this error message:
error: Configuration error - missing controller?
The root file system is not mounted and the configuration assistant has exited prematurely.
Booting is unlikely to succeed. CTRL-ALT-DEL may be used to reset the machine.
Failover to boot interpreter - type ctrl-d to resume boot

I tried ctrl-d it didnt work like it said and give these error message:
Cannot load drivers for
(can't load the root filesystem)
Please help, thank you

Did you get any help with these problems? I am worried now beacuse my install files are nothing like these sizes. I unzipped a v1-a to 128 Kb.
Did you find some isntructions? Could you forward them to me because I cannot find any. Thank you.
Mike
Hello,
I'm trying to create the 3 iso files from the Solaris
8 Intel download and am having
a problem with the iso formed file sizes. Two of the
iso files, the "install.iso"
and "v1.iso" are larger than 700 meg. (which is the
limit on my CDs) They are
944 meg and 729 meg respectively.
The sun intructions say to create the iso files from
the zipped files I downloads after
unzipping them. Well, combining 3 files each into
each iso file for the CD image is
creating these large iso images.
Is this the right procedure?
Also, do I even need the install.iso image as I see a
lot of talk on the newsgroups
about starting a fresh Solaris 8 install with CD 1
("v1.iso")?
Thank you!
- Steve

Solaris 8: Configuring HP 1300 Laserjet on

Hi there,
I had just add this printer as a �HP� PostScrip
printer to a SUN Blade 1000 Workstation.
The Printer daemon looks ok and It says that
it is printing; the problem, as usual is that
there is no impresion at all.
The Blade workstation has 3 conectors A, B
and Parallel and I tried to plug the printer on
any of them. There is some kind of special
configuration to make the printer do some
real work?
Thanks in advance
C�sar Bravo

I have the same problem with my laser printer 2605dn. the color is pale, i replaced the cartridges with original hp's but it did not help. I also lost the capability of double side printing that I had when I originally loaded the printer drivers. I noticed this all after I checked the internet for software updates for my printer. Are there any solutions for these problems?
please let me know.

Solaris 10 x86 install problems allocating resources

I have a problem when I first install. I get two devices, NON ACPI and ACPI both using IRQ 3. After the conflict resolves, during some page instances of the boot configuration assistant, I lose my keyboard functionality.
This is currently set to IRQ 1. I was wondering if this was correct based on x86 platform specific resources. I am also unsure as to what port I need to use.
Has anyone ever tried anything different other than IRQ 1?
AMD K6 400 w/ adaptec 2940 UW / 2 x 9.1 GB scsi Quantum 7200 rpm 56x ide cdrom and 192 mb memory SDRAM
Even if I switch my pci config around physically, that still won't help the keyboard probing or will it? Can I shut off probing and do it manually? Then again, I lose the keyboard sometimes during the boot config.
Thanks,
KW

I think u should do one thing.
1) Find out your name of your NIC card. ( Probably if u installed XP and seen which NIC is that)
2) Download drivers for your NIC by giving something like " download network drivers for solaris for ' your NIC' ".
3) If fortunately if u get drivers, copy it on ur solaris machine and install it by reading readme file of the drivers.
4) In readme file u will also find NIC name.
5) Then run command " ifconfig (card name e.g. bcme0) plumb
6) Now run "ifconfig -a" if u find ur card name there except le0 then congrats u have done it.
7) Move ahead with network config.
Note : - I am not sure but i think if ur machine is old then u will not get drivers for it.
Tell me if u get success........

Solaris 10 x86 intallation problems

I have an athlon based machine which was happily running XP this morning. I had previously divided the disk to use a Linux distribution on one half and XP on the other. I wanst using the Linux bit much due to graphics driver problems so I decided to replace it with a Solaris 10.
I duly went through the installation and was told that the solaris boot loader was incomaptible with the Linux one, grub I think, so I overwrote it and proceeded with the install. During the disk layout procedure I asked it to preserve my XP partition and use the rest for solaris. I had to shrink the solaris bit beyond teh full size by 100k or so and eventually it was happy, or so I thought.
Solaris is now duly installed and runs fine. I just need to sort out a network card driver. However my problem is that the sun boot loader sees the old XP partition as an extended dos partition (partition 3) and wont boot from it....
WHat have I done wrong?
Please dont tell me my XP partition is lost! Is there some tool I can use to make it bootable again? I have seen the grub bits on the GNU site. Are these any use?
All Help gratefully recieved.

FYI: I tried yet another version of solaris as i found out that theres a bug in the 64-bit kernel on update 4 for alot of new processors. Solaris 10 x86 update 7 did the trick! :). Installed right away on a standard 'Solaris 10 (64 bit)' VM. I still find it strange that the most recent version of solaris 10 fails to even start the installation.

hi,
Make sure that your network uses DNS naming.
This error occurs when a machine is not correctly configured to use DNS naming. The default fully qualified host and domain name presented during installation is not correct.
To successfully install, you need to provide a fully qualified domain name that consists of a local host name along with its domain name.
for example yoursystem is a host name and yourdomain.com is a fully qualified domain name.

Solaris 10 NFS caching problems with custom NFS server

I'm facing a very strange problem with a pure java standalone application providing NFS server v2 service. This same application, targeted for JVM 1.4.2 is running on different environment (see below) without any problem.
On Solaris 10 we try any kind of mount parameters, system services up/down configuration, but cannot solve the problem.
We're in big trouble 'cause the app is a mandatory component for a product to be in production stage in a while.
Details follows
System description
Sunsparc U4 with SunOS 5.10, patch level: Generic_118833-33, 64bit

Anomaly description
The server side of NFS is provided by a java standalone application enabled only for NFS v2 and tested on different environments like: MS Windows 2000, 2003, XP, Linux RedHat 10 32bit, Linux Debian 2.6.x 64bit, SunOS 5.9. The java application is distributed with a test program (java standalone application) to validate main installation and configuration.
The test program simply reads a file from the NFS file-system exported by our main application (called VDD) and writes the same file with a different name on the VDD exported file-system. At end of test, the written file have different contents from the read one. Indeep investigation shows following behaviuor:
_ The read phase behaves correctly on both server (VDD) and client (test app) sides, trasporting the file with correct contents.
_ The write phase produces a zero filled file for 90% of resulting VDD file-system file but ending correctly with the same sequence of bytes as the original read file.
_ Detailed write phase behaviour:
1_ Test app wites first 512 bytes => VDD receive NFS command with offset 0, count 512 and correct bytes contents;
2_ Test app writes next 512 bytes => VDD receive NFS command with offset 0, count 1024 and WRONG bytes contents: the first 512 bytes are zero filled (previous write) and last 512 bytes with correct bytes contents (current write).
3_ Test app writes next 512 bytes => VDD receive NFS command with offset 0, count 1536 and WRONG bytes contents: the first 1024 bytes are zero filled (previous writes) and last 512 bytes with correct bytes contents (current write).
4_ and so on...
Further tests
We tested our VDD application on the same Solaris 10 system but with our test application on another (Linux) machine, contacting VDD via Linux NFS client, and we don�t see the wrong behaviour: our test program performed ok and written file has same contents as read one.
Has anyone faced a similar problem?
We are Sun ISV partner: do you think we have enough info to open a bug request to SDN?
Any suggestions?
Many thanks in advance,
Maurizio.

I finally got it working. I think my problem was that I was coping and pasting the /etc/pam.conf from Gary's guide into the pam.conf file.
There was unseen carriage returns mucking things up. So following a combination of the two docs worked. Starting with:
http://web.singnet.com.sg/~garyttt/Configuring%20Solaris%20Native%20LDAP%20Client%20for%20Fedora%20Directory%20Server.htm
Then following the steps at "Authentication Option #1: LDAP PAM configuration " from this doc:
http://docs.lucidinteractive.ca/index.php/Solaris_LDAP_client_with_OpenLDAP_server
for the pam.conf, got things working.
