Patching errors on a Sparc box

807557Jun 16 2006 — edited Dec 18 2006
I applied the latest S10 Recommended patches on three systems with no problems. But, on the fourth system nearly every patch failed with the following message:

Installing 120719-01...
Installation of 120719-01 failed. Return code 5.

I checked the manpage for patchadd and there are no return codes listed. Where would I find the defined return codes for S10 patchadd? Also, the manpage lists a "-t" option that "Maintains the patchadd return codes from the Solaris release prior to Solaris 10." So, what changed?

Thanks,

Roger S.
