Can you post the log from swjob:

swjob -a log u156-0173 @ u156:/tmp/patches/depot

regards,
ivan

As Ivan said, we need to see the swjob output.
It could be your filesystem is full or you need to remove a corrupted /tmp/patches/depot?

Unfortunately that's probably wrong because it said:
u156:/tmp/patches/depot": This target does not exist and will be created.

Hi!

Sorry...

Hmm, your swjob says all of your patches are corrupt.

I'm not sure if you are required to install PHKL_31500 by itself?? (Since it was very special.) If PHKL_31500 is already installed on your system, you shouldn't put it in your depot?

You probably have to get expert advice from Scot.

Hi,

This could be due to corrupted downloads,

ERROR: Corrupt PHKL_31500.100BT-KRN,r=1.0
ERROR: Corrupt PHKL_33820.C2-INC,r=1.0
ERROR: Corrupt PHKL_35029.C-INC,r=1.0
ERROR: Corrupt PHKL_36244.CORE2-KRN,r=1.0
ERROR: Corrupt PHKL_36318.ADMN-ENG-A-MAN,r=1.0

Try to download it again and do packaging. It should resolve.

Try to download it again and do packaging.

By all means try it once. But I don't think that is what "Corrupt" means.

You could do swverify on each patch and see if it has "Corrupt" there.

Thanks for all answer!

I tried to download again and again a lot of times and... the same error...

Is it possible these patches are corrupt from HP?

Re: error create depot

Perhaps, not. First of all, once you download a depot; do a "swverify" and make sure it is perfect. Also, double check how to do download a depot file ?

I just downloaded PHKL_31500 and had no problems. On the downloads page it has this for the checksum. Do you match, at least for cksum(1)?
s700_800 11.23 Sept04 base patch
patchshar
MD5: 1bb27593f839365a750d7a703b8da656
Checksum: 1989990096 103143254

I assume you have seen the special instructions for PHKL_31500?
Prior to installing PHKL_31500 on a previously installed 11.23 system, the installation of the August 2004 version of BUNDLE11i is required.

Sorry guys...

I'm with a lot of problems with a thing very simple...

All the patches that I'm downloading are corrupt and I don't know why.

I tried zip, tar, gzip and I'm doing FTP binary...

For .tar I do the following:

tar -xvf and after that:
create_depot_hp-ux_11

*ERROR*

My server:

#swlist | grep -i BUNDLE
# Bundle(s):

Please, could explain how can I check theses patches that I'm trying to install with the swverify? I'm reading the man but I'm with some doubt... What the correct sintaxe?

Thank you!

Oops, it appears you can't use swverify on tape depots. So after you have unsharred the individual patches or what you have left over:
for i in P*.depot; do
rm -rf $PWD/$i.DD
swcopy -s $PWD/$i \* @ $PWD/$i.DD
swverify \* @ $PWD/$i.DD
done

And since it failed on swcopy before, it may be bad here too?

So the first step is to make sure the checksums of the individual patches on that patch page match what you get when you gunzip your *.tgz file.
