I only got one response on this -- quickly I may add! Aaron Lineberger
suggested that I manually register my machine with sconadm. It didn't work, and
I received the same error about the security validator. A little research
showed that there were some problems with the patch manager in various Solaris
releases. In fact, I remember some trouble with smpatch/updatemanager on my x86
laptop a few months ago, but the fix I used then (change the source URL to
"https:" and exclude the trailing "/solaris") didn't work, either.
I downloaded and installed the latest cluster. Word to the wise: You must run
/install_cluster, reboot, and rerun ./install_cluster a second time! After
that, it seems to be working just fine now (at least on one box!).
Thanks to all,
-Sal

Subject: smpatch on sol-10
Hi All-
I recently installed Solaris-10 06/06 on two new T2000's. Both are running
the Developer Cluster with slight modifications (add Freeware Shells, remove
Apache, remove WBEM, etc.)
After getting basic settings done, I ran updatemanager to install the latest
patch sets. My first run installed 119254-27 and 121118-08 which are
updates to the smpatch suite. I know there are more than two patches, so I
rechecked for updates. There are 128 new patches, but I can't get them to
install on either machine in either GUI or CLI mode.
Errors on one machine:
Failure: Cannot connect to retrieve Database/current.zip:
sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path validation failed:
java.security.cert.CertPathValidatorException: signature check failed
The other machine runs 'smpatch analyze' without problems, but if I try to
do 'smpatch download' or 'smpatch update' I get this error:
<patch#>: This patch could not be found
Two questions: Why are the error messages so different? Anybody know how
to fix this and get patches working again?
TIA,
-Sal
