Solaris OS patches baseline for JDK 1.4.2

Hi,
I find that the installation instruction for JDK 1.4.2 only direct me to latest recommended patches web page. Since we cannot install latest patches everytime we install JDK due to company policy, we need to have a baseline to ensure our application can run.
Do anyone know the baseline of OS patches for install and running JDK 1.4.2 and can share with me?Thanks a lot.

Yes, 1.4.2 and 5.0 will also contain this information in a later update release.
Currently 1.4.2_11 has tzdata2005n
and 5.0u6 contains tzdata2005m.
Both these updates contain rules for the Australian daylight savings changes(2006)

Patch number for Oracle 8.1.7.4 on Solaries SPARC 64bit

Guys,
Oracle Version: 8.1.6.0
OS: Solaris SPARC 64-bit
I would like to patch to 8.1.7.4. I need a patch number for this, I find it very difficult to search for the patch on Metalink. Would you please suggest the patch number and maybe also suggest the easier way to search for patches on Metalink.
Thanks in advance
Durbanite

Go to Metalink
Click on "Patches & Updates" tab
Click on "Simple Search"
Search by "Product and Family" and enter RDBMS Server
Choose the target release you are looking for (8.1.7.4)
Patch type => "Patchset/Minipack"
Classification => "Any"
Choose the "Platform or Language" your plateform (Sun Solaris SPARC 64bits)
And finally click on Go button.
You'll get only one row as result, the patchset you are looking for actually.
Nicolas.

Solaris 10 - patch for new DST 2007 changes

I am trying to track down the one patch I need for the new standard for daylight savings time date changes that took effect in 2007. Each time I get one patch and read the readme file, it tells me I need another patch for the U.S. Energy Policy Act for 2005. I am just about to install Solaris 10 patch 119689-07. I don't need any other patch updates, just the bare minimum new DST patch. Thanks for your help.

119689-07 is obsoleted by 118836. http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=1-21-119689-07-1
118836-36 is latest rev of this patch -- the kernel patch, whic has latest timezone data for the OS
You'll need to make sure java has latest tz data, too:
http://java.sun.com/javase/timezones/
As far as I know, these are the bare minimums for a system to function properly re: latest DST schedule

Bug 5088398 for JDK 1.5 in SOLARIS SPARC 10

The above bug relates to a java.lang.instrument TCK test deadlock (test11). The bug was solved about a month ago (March, 2008).
My question is when it is going to be integrated in solaris 10 patches or maybe there is already a patch for it.
Thank you
Simcha

This is not the correct place to ask that kind of question, we don't know.
You better contact Sun directly.

Solaris 10 SPARC Recommended Patch Cluster for 2008 quarter 3 version

Dear All,
Could any one please guide me, where I can download "Solaris 10 SPARC Recommended Patch Cluster" for 2008 quarter 3 version.
I have checked in sunsolve.sun.com, I'm able to find only the latest release.
please guide me.
Thanks and regards,
veera

Ok,
Here's a cute little formula to try using your systems parameters to gain some "head's-up" on an expected or estimated time to complete the patch run.
You will need a few things to prepare.
Number of "real" CPU's (not hyperthreads)
Speed of each CPU as a whole number i.e 2.87Ghz = 2,867
the total number of patches from the cluster i.e. Sept 15th = 381 (Solaris 10)
Network factor if using NFS = 2.5
local cluster file factor = 1.5
Patch cluster on CDROM factor = 3.25
Now, combine all of those elements in this equation:
{ ( #1 * #2 ) / #3 * factor(#4 or #5 or #6) }
This will yield a number in minutes of patch run time. Then all you will need to add is the standard boot up time to get the total of all patching and reboot.
Of course you could write a script to extract all of this information and feed it to "bc -l" to get a quick figure.
Example, on one of my Solaris 10 boxes with the information filled in to the equation:
#> echo "((4*2660)/381)*1.5"|bc -l
#> 41.88976377952755905511
It actually took 44.2 minutes to complete the patching of this box plus another 12 minutes to reboot. But all in all a pretty fair estimate I think.

Patch / workaround for kernel 2.6 (no components in pallet)

Since I've read about this complaint all over the net, and, after three weeks without problems, I seem to have solved the issue locally (at least for Fedora Core II), here's a mini tutorial on how to do a patch so that Creator sucessfully copies the required user files to your ~/.Creator directory.
First, a bit of background. The reason the copy fails is because Creator uses FileChannel.transferTo, which is broken for JDK 1.4 under kernel 2.6 by changed behaviour of the sendfile kernel routine. The "fix" for the Sun jvm is to set the transferSupported flag of the runtime jar's FileChannelImpl class to false in the static initializer. We don't have the source and the flag is not publicly accessible, so we're going to patch the bytecode and put the patched class on Creator's bootclasspath...
0.) if you've alread started the IDE once, rembember to delete the ~/.Creator directory. The copy happens only when a user starts the IDE and it is noted that the .Creator durectory does not exist.
1.) Get and install NetBeans if you don't have it.
2.) Get and install the jasm.nbm (http://jasm.netbeans.org/servlets/ProjectDownloadList)
3.) unjar the java installation's rt.jar somewhere
4.) mount the directory where you unjared the rt.jar
5.) open the mounted folder and navigate to /sun/nio/ch package
6.) right-click over the FileChannelImpl class, and pick the Tools/Decompile by JRAW menu item
7.) the action should result in three new items in the file tree
8.) Double-click the new item: FileChannelImpl.jraw to edit it
9.) Do a search in the editor for "transferEnabled" You should find the first occurence around here:
<snip>
cp146: Utf8 "transferFrom" // transferFrom
cp147: Utf8 "transferFromArbitraryChannel" // transferFromArbitraryChannel
cp148: Utf8 "transferFromFileChannel" // transferFromFileChannel
cp149: Utf8 "transferSupported" // transferSupported
cp150: Utf8 "transferTo" // transferTo
cp151: Utf8 "transferTo0" // transferTo0
cp152: Utf8 "transferToArbitraryChannel" // transferToArbitraryChannel
cp153: Utf8 "transferToDirectly" // transferToDirectly
</snip>
But the occurrence we're really interested in is here:
<snip>
cp396: Field #cp207 #cp294 // sun.nio.ch.FileChannelImpl.readable boolean
cp397: Field #cp207 #cp295 // sun.nio.ch.FileChannelImpl.transferSupported boolean
cp398: Field #cp207 #cp296 // sun.nio.ch.FileChannelImpl.writable boolean
</snip>
This is where we find out the ConstantPool handle for the field itself.
10.) do a search from where you found the cp### for the field. In my case, it is cp397.
You should end up here, which is the static initializer for the class:
AccessFlag { ACC_STATIC }
// <clinit> () -> void
#cp8 // Utf8 "<clinit>"
#cp232 // Utf8 "()V"
Attributes {
Name #cp10 // Utf8 "Code"
Len 117 {
MaxStack 2
MaxLocals 0
Code { // 69
getstatic #cp400 // 178 1 144
ifnonnull 15 // 199 0 15
ldc #cp6 // 18 6
invokestatic #cp463 // 184 1 207
dup // 89
putstatic #cp400 // 179 1 144
goto 6 // 167 0 6
getstatic #cp400 // 178 1 144
invokevirtual #cp411 // 182 1 155
ifne 7 // 154 0 7
iconst_1 // 4
goto 4 // 167 0 4
iconst_0 // 3
putstatic #cp394 // 179 1 138
iconst_1 // 4
putstatic #cp397 // 179 1 141
invokestatic #cp488 // 184 1 232
invokestatic #cp433 // 184 1 177
putstatic #cp393 // 179 1 137
new #cp210 // 187 0 210
dup // 89
invokespecial #cp467 // 183 1 211
putstatic #cp405 // 179 1 149
ldc #cp5 // 18 5
ldc #cp4 // 18 4
invokestatic #cp487 // 184 1 231
putstatic #cp403 // 179 1 147
return // 177
Exceptions {
Attributes {
Name #cp17 // Utf8 "LineNumberTable"
Len 30 {
0 26
35 367
39 877
42 878
48 879
58 880
68 882
11.) do the patch
As you can see, above, the (cp397) field value is initialized to "true" (iconst_1, putstatic #cp397)
You want to change it so that it is initialized to false, like this:
putstatic #cp394 // 179 1 138
iconst_0 // 4
putstatic #cp397 // 179 1 141
invokestatic #cp488 // 184 1 232
12.) recompile the jraw files to a class file. Just select them and choose Build/Compile.
13.) make a jar with just the new, patched class file. Inside the jar, the file must sit in /sun/nio/ch to preserve the package structure.
14.) Change your Creator ide.cfg file, found in ${creator_home}/bin, so that the jar containing your patched class is prepended to creator's bootclasspath
Here's an example (I chose to install as root and used the default install to /opt...I've since changed the min and max stack, but nothing else, except the bootclasspath specification)
-J-Xms128m -J-Xmx128m
-J-Xbootclasspath/p:/opt/Creator/bin/fixFileChannelImpl.jar
-J-Xverify:none
-J-Dorg.netbeans.do_not_warn_default_package=true
-J-Dnetbeans.security.nocheck=true
-J-Dsunappsrvint.home=/opt/Creator/SunAppServer8
-jdkhome /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_05
Hope that helps,

Error when installing 9.0.1.4.0 patch set for the Oracle Database Server.

Hi to all.
Currently, i am trying to install patches for portal server.
The server OS is Sun Solaris 8.
We are using Oracle9iAS.
Now, we are installing 9.0.1.4.0 patch set for the Oracle Database Server.
We managed to install the patch, but have problem with the Post Install Action.
We managed to run
-ALTER SYSTEM ENABLE RESTRICTED SESSION;
-@rdbms/admin/catpatch.sql
-ALTER SYSTEM DISABLE RESTRICTED SESSION;
-CONNECT / AS SYSDBA
-update obj$ set status=5 where type#=29 and owner#!=0;
-commit;
But, when we come to the next command, which is to shutdown, it gives us like
this..
SQL> update obj$ set status=5 where type#=29 and owner#!=0;
1402 rows updated.
SQL> commit;
Commit complete.
SQL> shutdown immediate
Database closed.
Database dismounted.
ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1
ORA-01219: database not open: queries allowed on fixed tables/views only
We tried to startup the database..it gives us this error..
SQL> startup
ORA-01081: cannot start already-running ORACLE - shut it down first
So, we tried to shutdown again..
SQL> shutdown immediate
ORA-01089: immediate shutdown in progress - no operations are permitted
I been informed that this is maybe a Database problem related. Any ideas?
Best Wishes,
Rushdan Md Saad.

Checking for Patch Requirements for Extended Support of 11.5.10

Hello
I am trying to check for a client that they are meeting the minimum requirements to remain on Extended Support. They use 11.5.10.2 and run that on a 11.2.0.3 db
The method I am using is:
1.
Check to see what is Shared and Licensed via OAM.
This will tell me the products that we must licensed and shared and which we must ensure we meet the minimum
2.
Go to Patch Requirements for Extended Support of Oracle E-Business Suite Release 11.5.10 [ID 883202.1]
and ensure that we are meeting these.
Seems very tedious ... (over 60 products to check) is there another way?
DA

Pl see if this MOS Doc can help

Changes in Solaris 10 Patch Access Policy

Solaris 10 x86 User Community
As of November 29th, Sun will be changing its Solaris 10 patch access policy. Now that Solaris 10 is freely available, support services require the purchase of a Sun Service Plan.
Under this new policy, access to patches is restricted. Security fixes and hardware driver updates are publicly available for free, but access to all other patches requires a Sun Service Plan.
Please see http://www.sun.com/service/sunconnection/solaris10patches.html for available access options.
Please send any questions to [email protected]

hi,
As a technical specialist I can understand everyone needs revenues to keep on going. But $120 for a min. level service plan it's really foolish on the policy makers. This would result in severe dent for the Solaris initiative itself in the long run. There should be reasonable pricing model, especially when Sun is projecting Solaris as an alternative to Linux! I do strongly suggest as a loyal Sun developer since 1996 to re-consider the service plan rates.
thanks,

I am not terribly worried, and everything seems to work OK, though I thought I should share, see if anyone else has run into this and if it has bit them.

C++ 5.0 patch equivalent for C++ 5.2

Hi,
I am looking for the C++ 5.2 equivalent of a C++ 5.0 patch
Version I am using: Sun WorkShop 6 update 1 C++ 5.2 2000/09/11
Problem encountered: SEGV signal in mallocunlocked
Found a patch that addresses this problem but the patch is for a different version of the compiler:
Patch-ID# 107311-16
Keywords: C++ CC 5.0 SC5.0
Synopsis: C++ 5.0: Patch for C++ 5.0 compiler
Date: Dec/17/2001
Solaris Release: 2.5.1 2.6 7 8
SunOS Release: 5.5.1 5.6 5.7 5.8
Unbundled Product: C++
Unbundled Release: 5.0
Can anyone help me find a patch for my compiler version?
Thanks!

I don't know of an equivalent patch, but you should be aware that a SEGV inside malloc or free is almost always the result of a bug in user code. Your code is probably trashing the heap in some way (writing past end of an array, following invalid pointer, double-delete, etc.). You should triple-check your code to find the error.
