I looked at the links you rovided but 11.11 and 11.23 are not mentioned at all.

Where can updates for 11.11 and 11.23?

[laurentmenase]

HP-UX 11.11 and HPUX 11.23 are out of support now. no update was released for those OS

[Bill Hassell]

I wonder why the post specified 11.11?

Thanks for sharing this. Quick question for environments still on 11.23, have you (or anyone here) run into issues applying the Web Server 5.15 update? I’ve seen mixed behavior in the past with older OS revisions and just wondering if it’s smooth this time around.

Also, does the Java 8.0.29 update require any specific patch bundle beforehand, or is it standalone?

About java8.0.29, in some conditions swing file selectors may hang. Better waiting for 8.0.30 planned to be released soon.

About apache  2.4.62,

• a known limitation is documented in the readme, and Advisory: HP-UX Apache httpd B.2.4.62 - Third-Party httpd Module May Fail or Cause httpd Display File Content due to a change of an apache httpd API to fix a security issue, This is not a defect, but may have consequences
• apache 2.4.62 like 2.4.58, is linked with openssl 3.0. As a consequence SMH needs to be updated if not already done.
