can't apply any patchs

jack cheng — Thu, 02 Aug 2001 20:13:08 GMT

After upgrate from 10.20 to 11.0, I download serveral individual patchs, but whenever I try to install them by the command like:
swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x patch_match_target=true \ -s /tmp/PHCO_23963.depot

I always got the similar error messages:
ERROR: Could not access remote file "/usr/include/resolv.h" in
software item
"PHCO_23963.INETSVCS-INETD,r=1.0,a=HP-UX_B.11.00_32/64,v=HP,fr=1.0,fa=H
due to an internal error on the remote system.

I am appreciate any help and advice.

Hi Jack,
Did you check that you have /usr/include/resolv.h file or not?
May be it is corrupt.

I have attached the resolv.h from latest 11.00 install. If you transfer this file to Unix run
dos2ux command
#dos2ux resolv.h > resolv.h.temp
#mv resolv.h.temp resolv.h

Hi jack,

that is an easy fix.. here is what you need to do:

1) start swinstall in the gui
2) go into the option menu
3) mark

All targets to resolve the source locally

and off you go.
Good luck,
