mk_kernel failed

Hello,

I tried to install the March 2001 HP-UX 11.31 Quality patch bundle but it failed with the following message:

ERROR: The module 'wsio' has a dependency on the module 'core' that cannot be satisfied.

I copied the /usr/conf/mod directory from another healthy identical system and tried mk_kernel to see if I could create a new kernel before installing the patches but it failed too.

I’m thinking running the command

kconfig -e /tmp/myconfig.system

on the healthy system and copy the resulting configuration file as well as the vmunix file to the bad system and then running

kconfig –i /tmp/myconfig.system

However, I’m not sure this will work because it appears the bad system has missing modules.

Any suggestion is greatly welcomed.

This is a production system and I cannot make changes until this weekend.

Thank you,

Fidel

This is probably referring to the contents of the /stand/system file - I think if you add a line "core" to it and rerun the mk_kernel, the problem will go away.
