mk_kernel error : "dev_config" module not available because its file has been removed from disk
Any clue why I'm getting the error below?
I would greatly appreciate any help. HP ITRC is already engaged since this morning but until now I haven't got any resolution. I'm wondering if anybody out there got an idea on how to fix this. Thanks in advance.
This is my system:
HPUX11i-OE-Ent B.11.23.0706 HP-UX Enterprise Operating Environment Component
ia64 hp server rx2660
------------------------------------------
ERROR MESSAGE:
------------------------------------------
[root@testap1]/stand# mk_kernel -o /stand/config/vmunix
ERROR: The configuration is supposed to include a module 'dev_config',
which is not available because its file has been removed from
disk.
----------------------------------------
Does anybody know what file is associated with "dev_config" module? I can't find the file itself (dev_module) in any of my working system running on the same hardware and OS version.

Re: mk_kernel error : "dev_config" module not available because its file has been removed from disk
> # mk_kernel -o /stand/config/vmunix
Your command line suggests there is a kernel configuration named "config". This is not one of the standard kernel configuration directories; the standard directories are /stand/current (the current kernel), /stand/backup (the previous kernel) and /stand/last_install. There is also /stand/nextboot which may or may not be a symbolic link to /stand/current.
(If you read "man mk_kernel" carefully, it says you're supposed to change the "config" part in /stand/config/vmunix to match the name of the kernel configuration you wish to make a new kernel for.)
Please run these commands and show their output:
kconfig
kconfig -v config
MK

Re: mk_kernel error : "dev_config" module not available because its file has been removed from disk
mk_kernel -o /stand/config/vmunix is still acceptable in 11.23. I am able to run this on my other server with similar config in both hw and sw.
-------------------------
If the target kernel path specified is of the form /stand/config/vmunix, changes are applied to the saved kernel configuration named config. The changes will not take effect at next boot unless that saved kernel
configuration was already marked for use at next boot.

Re: mk_kernel error : "dev_config" module not available because its file has been removed from disk
Thanks to ITRC
Just got this error fixed and I wanted to share this info to everybody:
What FIX it?
Running update-ux in preview mode and NOT saving anything when you exit. :-)
update-ux installs OE executables temporarily in:
/var/adm/sw/sbin
/var/adm/sw/lbin
/usr/lbin/sw/bin
links the following executable files in /usr/sbin to /usr/adm/sw/sbin
-----------
sd
swacl
swagentd
swconfig
swcopy
swinstall
swjob
swlist
swmodify
swpackage
swreg
swremove
swverify
------------
update-ux cleans up its trashes when you exit withou saving anything :-)
This command below helped in tracing out the culprit "kconfig" in /usr/lbin/sw/bin when I ran mk_kernel
# ./tusc ├в o hp.txt mk_kernel ├в v ├в s /stand/system
grep kconfig hp.txt
---------------
stat("/usr/lbin/sw/bin/kconfig", 0x7fffe230) .......................................................................................... = 0
