Solaris 9 and Updatemanager install problems

I recently installed the Sun Connection on a Solaris 9 setup. I had to load JDK 1.5.0_12 packages and then install the Sun Connection products.
I was able to finally see that "updatemanager" is present. It worked great. It accepted by contract information. I tried to load five security patches including a kernel patch. It worked. After the reboot however, the updatemanager GUI only reports the dialog box "unknown subcommand getdocument". While it invokes, it no longer has information. I have experimented with JAVA settings and path statements. What can I do next?
The install was downloaded from a Sun site and it says Sun Connection Update Manager v1.0.10 - 22 August 2007 from the README. What can be done to get "updatemanager" to invoke again and not abort so early in the analysis?

Are they going to put out a patch to fix what they broke?
I have the same issue. Got to love the lack of QA. At least I'm very used to it after a couple years. :-)

  • Primairy IDE and Windows Install Problems!

    Hail all, I have had this issue the last 48 hours for the most part, but it started last monday night..
    I orderd all my stuff from newegg.. I got:
    Intel 775 Socket 2.8ghz Prescott
    ECS Mobo (psh model)
    2x 512mb DDR 3200
    Western Digital 80gb Hard Drive at 7.2k RPM (my only OEM item)
    Chaintech GeForce 6600 GT video card
    Jaht ( I think? :p ) Wireless PCI Adapter (can't have wires running in my room)
    Aspire-X Dreamer II Case
    Rosewell DVD/CD-RW combo (very cheap).
    Anyways, I hooked it all in and it wouldn't give a signal to my monitor. I found out a small mount was hitting the mobo, and it was probably damaged. I got a new motherboard on Friday (which was all of my paycheck being as young as I am), the grand MSI 915P Combo. Oh, it was so shiny and awesome!
    I got a signal to the monitor, and it started up. I put in a floppy for the latest BIOs and it seemed to go right. I put in my WinXP disk, and rebooted. Do do do, it starts to do that 'pre-'load Windows thing. When the little message at the bottom says "Loading Windows Setup". I am thinking "so leet  ".
    When, HELLO, my first Blue Screen of Death (before I even installed Windows! I love that). It says check for Virusis (I havn't been on the internet..) and uninstall any new HDs and such. Well, that confuses me. So.. I put in my friend's very very old HD (which has tons of buggies in it BTW) and that loads fine. So I put mine back in, skim through my BIOs and I notice that the HD is the Third Master IDE, and that my CD-ROM slot is considered RAID.
    What the hell?
    I am going to install the older set of BIOs for the 915P Combo from July instead of the September ones and hopefully that'll fix it.
    Has anyone else had any errors like this? Thanks - Erik

    you skiped the part about him buying the msi board.

  • AshTray and Bluetooth install problems

    Was trying to install some old games on my ideapad S10e and somehow resorted to using AshTray custom resolution app (used with eeepc to help run certain games).. well to cut a long story short.. Dont use this app i was able to play a game (diablo2) but it changed all the default resolutions. In the end there was no way i could go back to the native resolution so i had to opt for first time pressing the F11 Recovery button.. took a little while but it did complete the process with fresh factory settings and rez back to normal. Then after that i check my device manager and it said that the bluetooth device wasnt installed. Strange cos everthing else was installed ok. I downloaded the bluetooth drivers for my S10e and clicked install.. it looked like it installed but for the life of me i still couldnt figure out why bluetooth was still yellow in device manager. Well just as i started writing this i figured it out if anyone else comes upon this problem (noob trap). Basically the BT drivers are "extracted" to C:\DRIVERS\WIN\BTW\54bl03ww and you need to run the setup.exe then it installs properly. I know im a noob but i would of thought it installed automatically like all the other device drivers. Quite impressed by the recovery mode appart from the BT hiccup it worked as good as i would expect. 
    oh well  Panic over S10e is back to normal  

    Now the email began to work again:mansurprised:
    Still having problems with bluetooth handsfree device: E 75 doesnt even ask passwords when I try to connect bluetooth handsfree and cant establish connection with voice devices. Bluetooth still works fine with my laptop or other phones! Does anyone have solutions?

  • InDesign CS6 uninstall and re-install problems

    Okay.  I had a project to work on for a class I'm in and wanted to open Indesign CS6 on my computer but I kept getting crash reports and the program would not open.  So.... I desided to uninstall it and re-install it figuring it is still part of my on-going cloud membership here, but now the program is not listed...so ... how do I get it back??? 

    Hi,  Thanks for this link, but it does not help.  I was a creative cloud
    member when the CS6 software first came out and so.that was how I came to
    have the CS6 InDesign.  So....I have no serial number.  And yes, I do have
    InDesignCC now, but I want to work on my project in a college classroom
    that only has CS6 on the computers...and so I want to use it at home to
    transport back and forth and without saving to CS4-level.

  • Solaris 8 and sys-unconfig problem

    I have an older Solaris 8 E450 machine that I wanted to rejoin to a different domain etc...so I used sys-unconfig but now am experiencing major problems! I need some help;
    What happened was after the machine rebooted, it prompted that it was discovering the network then came to the Solaris Installation screen but with garbed options. I could make out "F2 to continue" tried to hit it to continue but the terminal keyboard was locked. After waiting about 15 minutes with no change in system state, I rebooted.
    Now when the machine boots I get as far as Sun Copyright info, then get the message "INIT: Cannot create /var/adm/utmpx" then the text runs off the right hand side of the screen and the machine 'stops'. The only way to get back to the ok prompt is to 'break'. I am a relative newbie to Solaris so any and all help would be GREATLY appreciated, I really do not want to re-install...
    Thanks in advance!
    Ernie

    On some systems, especially if you are using a VT you have to press and hold esc&2 before it will proceed, but regardless of this, my advice would be to
    1) boot in single user mode (ok>boot -s)
    2) cd /etc (#cd /etc)
    3) rm ./hostname.<interface> (eg hostanem.hme0)
    4) reboot
    You should now have a system that has started without network traffic. Change all relevant netwokr files (/etc/hosts, /etc/netmasks) and you can now config a new device. To do this just vi the /etc/hostname.<interface> (as above) and enter a hostname, add this hostname to your /etc/hosts file and remember to put the tab betweeen entries, and reboot again, should be cool.

  • Solaris 8 4/01 Install Problem on Compaq Deskpro

    Howdy,
    I am trying to install Solaris 8 4/01 on a Compaq Deskpro 6000 but I am having a problem at the reboot phase. The instructions indicate that I need to eject the Install CD after the system resets and before the memory test/HW detection phase. My question is, how do I know when this occurs...there is no screen output to tell me when this is happening. Also, The system seems to hang on reboot on a Compaq Logo screen with the hourglass just sitting there doing nothing.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks
    Dennis

    Dennis,
    The installation program should tell you when it is going to restart the system. You will be asked to 'press any key/enter to continue."
    Immediately when your system is restarted, remove any CDs from your drives.
    If your system is hanging while it is showing the Compaq logo, trying pressing the 'ESC' key so that you can see what is actually going on.
    I hope this helps.

  • Patch 10 and 11 Install Problems

    My application worked very successfully, using the servlet with all patches up to and including 9 using the 1.1 Jinitiator versions. I wanted to look at the time zone features and applied patch 10, and then 11. The servlet test appears to work in the new patches 10 and 11.
    Using the latest 1.1 Jinitiator in either patch 10 and 11, I get "92102 - Negative or zero content-length" when starting the application. Does anyone know what this means, and/or what cures the problem?
    Using the 1.3 JInitiator, I get "frm-92150 Web Client Version too New" I have not seen this one before either and scant reference to it - only on Solaris - with solutions not applicable to Windows 2000. Again any ideas are welcome.
    Many thanks,

    It's worth clearing the JInitator Cache to try and get rid of the Client too New message. The other error is due to a problem in the contents of the HTTP header - We've only seen that with IE on Mac and the Apple MRJ in the past - double check that you are using the correct Jinit 1.1 version for those patches.
    If clearing the cache does not fix the client too new then try with one of the other JARS e.g f60all rather than f60all_jinit. It may be that the JARs are out of sync with the Server - for instance if something had one of the JARs open when you installed so it was not overwritten with the new version.

  • Win2K and WinXP Install problems on ms6337le5

    Hi,
    I've had a Ms6337le5 motherboard for a while now and have been using Windows 98. I got sick of Windows 98 crashing every two seconds so i decided to go with Windows 2000 or XP, but to my surprise, both of them WILL NOT install. It says it cant read driver.cab off the cd, but the cd is brand new, i even tried a mates cd and it had the same problem.
    I have the latest Bios for my mainboard (7.3) and the latest intel INF driver installed also. I actually did succeed once in getting Windows 2000 to work but then everytime i tried to access a CD my whole computer would crash.
    This has been a problem for a while and i was wondering if anyone could help?
    My system specs are:
    Intel Tualatin 1.2ghz

  • Solaris 10 Companion Disk Install Problem

    Hi All,
    Trying to add a few things to a Solaris 10 (Sparc) install, from the
    Software Compainion disk. When I go through the install, either GUI
    or texted based it will fail in the end. If you look at the last part
    of the text below you can you can see I have selected the packages,
    then agreed to the license, next it acts like it going to install but
    stop and reports nothing installed.
    Next you can select 4 to be "Done" or 1-3 to view log.
    Log states following:
    /var/sadm/install/logs/Desktop-Environment_install.B02081004 does not
    exist
    I only selected one of the logs to view that time through, but the
    other installs would have the same error, something like:
    /var/sadm/install/logs/X-Applications_install.B02080955 does not exist
    /var/sadm/install/logs/Application-Utilities_install.B02080955 does not
    exist
    I have plenty of disk space, 12GB free on /opt and 14GB free on / and
    16GB on /usr.
    I have the boxed set of Solaris 10 disk, but I have even downloaded
    another disk image thinking my disk was some how bad, still same
    results.
    Any ideas on what is going on?
    Thanks
    Joe

    Hi Joe,
    If you cd into the cdrom from command line:
    # cd /cdrom/cdrom0
    # ls
    you should see some kind of structure to how the the packages are laid out on the disk.
    Use pkgadd on one or more package:
    # pkgadd -d . <package_name>
    You will get more output this way.

  • Sound Driver and Driver Installment Problems

    I have been having trouble trying to get my sound driver to work on my
    MacBook Pro in Windows XP. After updating my MacBook with all it current
    upgrades, I loaded up Bootcamp to install Windows XP now, I have followed
    all the instructions in the guide and have succefully installed Windows XP but,
    when I run Windows and start to install the Drivers from my Mac unto
    Windows, close to the end I get a message that it could not finish properly.
    Now, I find that all runs well except an important thing like my sound. I go
    into the sounds control menue to see if there is a driver and as i suspect
    nothing. I also check for my network and nothing and same for my eject
    button, that doesnt work either. Please if someone can assist me on this
    problem it would be much apprecitated and that way I can use my music
    programs which I have not been able to use.

    Your question has nothing to do with the installation of OS X. Post it in the Boot Camp discussions:

  • Win2k3 64 x86 and Appex instalation problems (missing OHS on companion CD)

    Oracle guys,
    I do understand that Windows is not preffered OS for Oracle...but most of us Oracle people have laptops and on them Windows OS (from Win2k, Win XP, Win2k3, Win2k364...tomorrow maybe Vista).
    <br><br>So we, with new 64 bit CPU, would like to use all the potential of the hardware. I do not want to describe why 2k3 is very stable and secure platform...but after Win2k this is one of the most complete OS from MS (IMHO).
    <br><br>So, please give us a note what to do if we want to use Win2k3 64 server x86 version and Oracle10gR2 64 for x86 and want to develop Appex on this database.
    <br><br>Missing point is OHS (it is not on companion CD)-so any suggestion what to do is appresciated (If standalone Appache is solution please let us know which version would suite best...and do we have to install "mod" parts...
    <br><br>P.S.
    <br>I know that Win2k3 64 bit and Oracle WinNT32 is not recommended combination (I have some listener problems so I decided to quit this combination)...so I'm exploring Oracle 64 bit usage-but now I'm stucked!
    <br><br>P.S. II
    <br><br>I have put this question on Appex group but no reply at all (some other users have joined me in questioning this). So please if this is not the right place, could you lead me where to post this topic?
    <br><br>THX!

    How about installing HTTP server as Oracle Application Server 10g. Even if it is not supported it may work since this is just for development on your laptop.
    Alternatively install Database XE which comes with Apex 2.1 ( but not the latest version 2.2).
    I have just hit the same problem. I have installed database and companion 10 R2 10.2.0.1.0 with patch 4547918 to 10.2.0.2 on my MS WIN x86 64 bit laptop. I wanted to install Apex 2.2 on top but have no HTTP server. Thanks for pointing out the release notes.
    The getting stated page of the documentation on the companion cd states you can install the following 2 installation types:
    * Oracle Database 10g Products: Includes Oracle Database Examples, natively compiled Java libraries for Oracle JVM and Oracle interMedia, and knowledge bases for Oracle Text.
    * Oracle Database 10g Companion Products: Includes Oracle HTTP Server, Oracle Workflow, and Oracle HTML DB.
    But as we have found you can only install Products not Companion Products on 10g Release 2 (10.2) for Microsoft Windows(x64).

    Please help... THANKS

    Thank you for you help
    i searched on the german MSI Homepage http://www.msi-computer.de for the BIOS update (i am german   ) and i only find version 1.2.
    should it work with this version? or is the bug fixed only in 1.3?
    where can i download version 1.3 (compatible with german boards too or is there no different?)
    i have a award bios and on the official HP seems that there are only AMI Bios.

  • Wireless Mouse and Keyboard Install Problem

    I am trying to install my wireless keyboard and mouse onto my Mac OS X 10.3.9. My dad had this computer before me and had the mouse and keyboard paired and working. After it was shipped to me, I attempted to pair these again with no luck. THe bluetooth won't recognize either and if i try and run the KeyboardandMouse.pkg as instructed, the icon simply isn't there when I insert the disk. I've attempted to pair using the system preferences, but it cannot locate either the keyboard and mouse. Yes, I do have new batteries installed and the lights do blink when switched on. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

    Hello again:
    Try trashing the BT preference file (com.apple.bluetooth.plist) and restarting.
    If that does not work (although it will take you a bit of time), I think I would try an archive and install:
