Solaris 10 x86 JDS login problem

Greetings,
After working flawlessly for a week or so, I suddenly am unable to log in to JDS. After I enter my login information, the screen goes blank, an hourglass icon appears, and then I am kicked back out to the dtlogin display. I can log in with CDE just fine.
This happens with root, my user account, and a brand new user account I just created. All the permissions on my home directory are fine (and I did a chown -R of everything, just to be safe). This happens both with Xorg and Xsun. I also tried rebuilding the font cache, as an earlier post on this forum had suggested that.
I originally had thought it might have been a patch problem, but I backed out of every JDS and X patch, and I still can't log in.
There are no error messages in the Xorg logs or any of the files in /var/adm or /var/log.
I'd greatly appreciate any help or pointers you all might have. Thanks muchly!

This is likely to be totally unrelated to your problem but I can't help wonder. And perhaps you may pick up something usefull to debug your problems...
I have seen this behaviour a few times on KDE. After carefully checking it turned out that some of its datafiles (in ~/.kde) were setup with the wrong permission bits thus making it impossible for me to read/write it (and automaticly overwrite). Now I can't help wonder if this isn't happening to you too, in some issues KDE and Gnome act quite alike.
A possible option to debug this would be to try and start the Java Desktop from the console. To this end you'd need to put the commands needed to start JDS in your ~/.xinitrc file after which you should be able to use 'startx' to see if it'll run. Make sure you use > and 2> to capture the logs it produces since that will likely help you to find the cause of your problems.

Solaris 8 intel login problem

while working on my machine i accidently shut it off.
When i rebooted it, the only way i can login using the CDE is through root. My other accounts are unable to login. There is not message, just returns me to the login window. Any ideas ?

I was trying to avoid that because my forte compiler is associated with the one particular account that is having problems. The other thing is that the only user that can login via CDE is the root, the other accounts cannot and even when i create a new account from root using the Admin tool i still have the same problem.

Solaris 10 x86/JDS-3 Application Support

I have successfully installed and am running Solaris 10 x86/JDS-3 on an HP OmniBook 6100.
I did have some problems with sound that were solved by downloading drivers from http://www.opensound.com
I also was able to load plug-ins for Macromedia Flash.
I am confused about which other plug-ins to use if there are none written specifically for Solaris x86. Should I choose a linux driver?
Also, I would like to play DVD movies on my laptop. There doesn't seem to be a built-in application to do it. What do you recommend?
All the best,
Frank

Problem Oracle10G Installation in Solaris-x86

Hai,
I am facing problem when installing Oracle10g on solaris machine.
I created user and group for oracle and also changed some kernel properties.after changing all requirements i am trying to run runInstaller...but it gave exception like this ...
Exception:
Starting Oracle Universal Installation...
Checking Installation requirements...
Checking Operating System version :
must be 5.6,5.7,5.8,5.9 Actual 5.10
failed <<<<
exsting oracle universal installer.log for this session can be found at /tmp/orainstaller/datetime....
I am using ---
Oracle version : Oracle Database 10g Release 1(10.1.0.3) for Solaris x86
Solaris Version : Solaris 5.10
can any one help me out from this problem....
Thanks in advance ....
-Lakesh

Oracle 10G release 1 only support up to Solaris 9.
You probably need to install 10G release 2. The second release of major Oracle version is always more stable anyway.

Telnet from Windows PC is very slow to Solaris x86, after Net linked

(Sorry about the re-post. I posted in the wrong group earlier)
I got the following info from this forum, in regards to configuring my Solaris x86 to link to the Net:
# echo 192.168.0.1 > /etc/defaultrouter
# route add default 192.168.0.1
# echo nameserver 192.168.0.1 >> /etc/resolv.conf
# cp /etc/nsswitch.dns /etc/nsswitch.conf
So I did the above steps, reboot the Solaris, and my Solaris system can link to the Net fine afterwards. But ever since it had Net access, another problem is created.
Whenever I telnet using a command line from a Windows XP computer, it takes a long time to telnet to this Solaris system. Before, I would see the Solaris login prompt for telnet in a few seconds. Now, it's about 1 minute. Plus, if I try to use an xterminal software from that PC to link to the Solaris x86, it hangs.
So after I undo all the 4 commands above, reboot the Solaris computer, all these problems disappear. I can telnet from my Windows PC to this Solaris system very quickly. However, I no longer have Internet access from my Solaris.
Anyone knows how I can fix this problem? Thanks.

It sounds like a name resolution issue. Can you post the contents of your /etc/nsswitch.conf file for us?

[IMAP SSL] Certificate-Based Login problems

Hi,
I am trying to set up a Certificate-Based Login authentication for an installation of Java Messaging Server 7 Update 3 over Solaris x86 64bit platform.
The objetive is to allow a client to establish an SSL session using a certificate that has been issued by a CA that the server has established as trusted and then grant access to the user without providing his password.
In my installation, unfortunately password is allways required to login any user. These are the steps I have made:
1. Add the CA-signed server certificate.
2. Add the trusted Certificate Authority.
3. Turn on all cipher suites including the weak ones.
4. Enable SSL
./configutil -o service.imap.enablesslport -v yes
./configutil -o service.imap.enable -v 1
./configutil -o service.imap.sslport -v 993
./configutil -o service.imap.sslusessl -v yes
./configutil -o encryption.rsa.nssslpersonalityssl -v "Product-Cert" (where Product-Cert is my CA signed server certificate)
5. Check with the netstat command to verify that the service is running.
bash-3.00# ./configutil -o service.imap.sslport
993
bash-3.00# netstat -an | grep 993
*.993 *.* 0 0 49152 0 LISTEN
Once I have taken these steps, when I use a client to establish an SSL session with a PKCS#12 certificate installed (signed by the same CA trusted by MS and the email address in your users' certificates matches the email address in a users' directory entry) the connection is correct stablished using the port 993 but it is allways necessary to login with password to grant access.
The imap logs seems to show that the MS is not requesting the user's certificate from the client, because allways shows "plaintext authentication" (this correspond a try to access to the user's inbox without Login).

Please, Can you help me to discover if there is something wrong in my configuration?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for your reply Shane.
Yes, I have configured the client to use port 993. I think the problem is in the Multiplexor configuration, after finished, I allways get this Log message in the ImapProxy Logs:

Where 192.168.169.108 is the IP of the server where MS is installed. The strange thing is that there are no connections established becacause this is a development environment, when I try to check the IMAP port (not ssl) I find a strange behaviour:

Any idea?
One question more. I have read that Store Administrators have proxy authentication privileges to any service (POP, IMAP, HTTP, or SMTP), which means they can authenticate to any service using the privileges of any user. The question is: Is there any way for the Store Administrator to access to the mailbox of all the users using the IMAP protocol?
Thanks a lot for your help,

Install error for Oracle 10g on Solaris x86 64-bit. NETCA won't run

Hi All,
I'm installing Oracle 10.2.0.1 on Solaris x86 64-bit. I run the Oracle installer and all runs well until the NETCA portion of the install. It then errors (error file below). When i attempt to run NETCA outside of the installer i'm getting the same error output. I have verified my OS version and that all dependent packages are installed. I'm not sure what is causing this. Any help would be greatly appriciated.
thanks, dave

How to integrate a Solaris x86 server on Sun Management Center ?

Hello people,
I want to integrate a Solaris x86 server on Sun Management Center platform.
If I'm not wrong, SunMC doesn't run for Solaris x86, server and client only as console with Java.
In speat of it, I try to install Sun Management Center 3.0 Agent for Solaris x86.
It seems to be ok, install packages, but when execute es-setup script, intents to create the following directory:
/opt/SUNWsymon/base/bin/sparc-sun-solaris2.8
I supose that in this directory, SunMC will install sparc binary files
At this point, I can't follow the installation and abort it.
Can anybody give me ideas to install and integrate my solaris x86 server on SunMC ?
Thanks

Dear Gents,

my problem is that i could not install the SMC agent on Red Hat Linux. as i could not find an easy document or steps to do so.
could you guide please?If you still have a copy of your SunMC media around, the same ["es-inst"|http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-2215/command-line-1?l=en&a=view] program you use to install Solaris Agents should work on Linux as well. It autodetects OS type and will install Solaris packages or RPMs as appropriate.

Help with evaluation for Solaris x86

Hello,
I would like to evaluate Oracle Identity Manager and Access Manager products at the latest version possible -- the host system(s) are Solaris x86 (SunOS .5.10) Unfortunately, I am having a bit of trouble compiling the list of packages/versions to achieve this for this platform. For instance, on the downloads page it appears that OIM is not available for Solaris x86, not even in older versions(?)
Thank you in advance,
Scott

Hi Scott,
I'm pretty sure that x86 Solaris is not yet certified to run the Identity Management suite. I've been involved in an evaluation process and we ran it all on RedHat Enterprise Server Release 4 Update 5, without too many problems.
cheers,
James

Core 2 Duo and solaris x86 11/06 works for me

This is FYI, since I seen (and posted) problems, but I haven't seen the solution posted.
I have successfully gotten solaris x86 11/06 to install and run on my core 2 duo machine. I had tried solaris x86 06/06, but I could only run in 32bit mode until patch 118855-19 was installed. It looks like 118855-33 is the baseline for 11/06.
With 06/06 I had to edit the grub command and add " kernel/unix" to the end of the 2nd line. This would force 32 bit mode rather than 64 bit. If I tried 64 bit, it would enter an endless reboot cycle. Once I installed the patch to 118855-19 I could run solaris 10 06/06 in 64 bit mode without issue.
Again, since solaris 10 11/06 is at 118855-33, it runs on my core2 machine straight from the install.
Hope this helps

On a laptop there is little point with running a 64-bit operating system unless it physically has more than 4gb of ram, or if you are processing datasets exceeding 4GB of ram. Unless you're into assembly or use Solaris for some reason to manipulate media, little is to be gained by using 64-bit versions if anything. The increased pointer, integer, and padding causes more memory to use for the same software, most software on 64-bit operating systems runs in 32-bit mode because there is no need to have 16 exabyte memory addressing capability for anything but media encoders, giant databases, or extremely bloated single-threaded software. Sun Java Creator takes a heck of a lot of ram, but even at peak it's still under 4GB. If you move files bigger than 4GB, the ability to memory map all 4096MB might have less overhead on a 64-bit operating system, but generally from an end-user perspective, especially on a fast Intel or Opteron system, you won't notice the difference much. Solaris is bi-arch, a large chunk of Windows Vista and XP x64 is bi-arch, and most of FreeBSD and Linux are bi-arch in 64-bit versions, as I said, no point in making everything 64-bit. 64-bit device drivers is an issue for every OS, you should stick with 32-bit on a laptop, and hold off on desktops unless you need extended assembly registers available only in 64-bit mode.

Solaris-x86 mount fat32 partition, the partition max size limit?

solaris10 x86, laptop, 10G FAT32 partition for windows & x86 exchange data.
the fat32 partition mount as normal, can be read fine.
but write some file by x86, that can not find by windows.
anyboy know did the solaris-x86 mount fat32 partition, the partition max size limit? or no limit, why this problem occur?

Mounting Windows partition in Solaris
The easiest way to share data now is to do it through a FAT32 partition. Solaris
recognises it as partition of type pcfs. It is specified as device:drive where drive is
either the DOS logical drive letter (c through z) or a drive number (1 through 24).
Drive letter c is equivalent to drive number 1 and represents the Primary DOS partition
on the disk; drive letters d through z are equivalent to drive numbers 2 through 24,
and represent DOS drives within the Extended DOS partition.Syntax is
mount -F pcfs device:drive /directroy-name
where directory name specifies the location where the file system is mounted.
To mount the first logical drive (d:) in the Extended DOS partition from an IDE hard
disk in the directory /d use
mount -F pcfs /dev/dsk/c0d0p0:d /d
You can use mount directory-name after appending following line is in
/etc/vfstab file
device:drive directory-name pcfs no rw
for example
c0d0s0:c /c pcfs no rw
If your windows partition like the following means
C: - NTFS, D:-FAT32, E:-NTFS, F:-FAT32
Then you can only mount D, F not C & E.
Mounting D Drive:
mount -F pcfs /dev/disk/c0d0p0:c /mountpoint
Mounting F Drive
mount -F pcfs /dev/disk/c0d0p0:d /mountpoint
The driveletter only for fat not including other file systems (ntfs or any linux filesystems).

Solaris x86 with card on-board

Hi all,
I got a problem when installing Solaris9 x86 on ibm NetVista Machine.
I have installed 2 other machines with separated network card sucessfully. I can configure to connecto to my LAN network.
But when install on 2 ibm NetVista machines (which include onboard network card ), It is fail to be configured to connect to the network in both following cases:
Case 1: I choose proper driver as Sun suggest for Intel VE Pro(R) 10/100 : iprb. And the Solaris detect successfully. I checked by "ifconfig -a" and saw the network card active on "iprb0".
Next, I following correct instructions to configure the network card to connect to the LAN. But when i ping IP (9.187.186.18) to other computer in our same subnet LAN,
The system display eg: "No anwer from 9.187.186.18"
I run the "snoop" command to view broadcasr ARP in an other terminal. The snoop terminal displays ARP signal boradcasting from the Solaris. However, it can nerver get ARPs from other computer in LAN.
Case 2: I add 3COM network driver to the solaris ( onboard card is no loger used ). The system can auto-detected this card and i can configure to connect to the network. The problem remain unchange.
Is there any special in IBM Netvista machine need to be configure under Solaris x86 or any particular configuarion for on-board network card. ???
Can any boy help me to solve this problem ??
Best regards,
Thang,
Vietsoftware Developer

However, it can nerver get ARPs from other computer in LAN.Are you perhaps running "snoop" on a box different from the one that you're trying to ping, and are you using
a switched ethernet? In that case it would be OK if you only see the ARP broadcast, because the ping target
box will send the ARP reply directly to the MAC of the requesting station (i.e. there's no ARP broadcast reply),
and an ethernet switch will send the ARP reply directly to the port where the station with the given destination
MAC is connected - no other port should see the reply.
If you're trying to ping 9.187.186.18 from the new Solaris x86 box, try to run snoop on the 9.187.186.18
system. 9.187.186.18 should see the ARP broadcast from the LAN, and the 9.187.186.18 box should list the
ARP response it sends back to the LAN.
Is there any special in IBM Netvista machine need to be configure under Solaris x86 or any particular
configuarion for on-board network card. ???I guess the interrupt handler for the NIC is not working, so the Solaris x86 sees no incomming packets.

Solaris x86 11/06 hung on Acer TravelMate 8210 Laptop

I've just installed Solaris x86 11/06 on my Acer TravelMate 8210 laptop. The installation was completed successfully. However, when the system is rebooted into Solaris, it is always hung at:
�Use is subject to license terms.�
This problem happens with both of the 32-bit and 64-bit kernel. While booting with the option �-kv�, the system always stops at:
�PCI Express-device: pci8086,2448@1e, pci_pci0
pci_pci0 is /pci@0,0/pci8086,2448@1e�
I�ve also tried to boot with the �-s� option, but it doesn�t help.
Is there anything else that I can try? Thank you in advance!
Here is my system spec:

Before the installation, I ran the Solaris Installation Check Tool 1.2, and it said that the system is able to run Solaris.

I've just installed the Solaris Express DE 2/07 and still have the same problem.

Question about wide-screen monitor on Solaris x86

I have Solaris x86, version 10/2009 installed.
It works fine with any wide-screen monitor I plug in.
But when I use this 3rd party CAD/CAM software, any round
circle is being displayed as an oval shape. I believe that's because
on the wide-screen monitor, the width of the monitor is longer than the height.
Does anyone know if there's a setting to change so that I can view circles as true round circles instead of an oval shape? Thanks.

OK, I know what the problem is now.
But I need to change the resolution settings. Does anyone know how to change it on x86, version 10/2009?
I recall it being something like "kdmconfig"

Please suggest the fastest way to install Solaris x86 PC 30 boxes

I've already tested one and it's successfully installed.
I have to install 30 boxes , all are same spec.
Please advise the fastest procedure to install.
Note : There is no sparc machine.

Only problem with imaging a Solaris x86 box is that your machines will end up with the same hostid (which is pseudo-randomly generated at Solaris installation time for x86). This may, or may not, be a problem, depending on what commercial software you use...
To avoid this, you have to use jumpstart, or do some serious hacking.
