Solaris 10 - pkgadd

Hi

There is another pkg_ process running.

do this:
ps -ef | grep pkg_

Then kill if you find any.
If you don't know how, then post the output of the above command.

If you find nothing, then try a reboot.

Hi,

# ps -ef | grep pkg_
    root 28663 28373   0 09:15:33 pts/7       0:00 grep pkg_

Any other suggestion?

Tks

Delete all *pkg* files in your /tmp folder.
I looks like an installation crashed, so it didn't delete the temporary files.

# rm /tmp/*pkg*

Just to add:
Tried also to:

# rm /var/sadm/install/.lockfile
# rm /tmp/.ai.pkg.zone.lock-<xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

but everutime I try to run the pkgadd again I get the .ai.pkg.zone.lock-<xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxxx> created again..

See ls command below at /tmp:
# ls -la

Try a different package, and lets see if the problem is related to that specific package, or the package manager.

The same package worked in another machine of the cluster...

So its not a package issue...

Are you running Solaris 10 Sparc ?

Yes.
cat /etc/release
                       Solaris 10 5/09 s10s_u7wos_08 SPARC

Download the file again.

It must have corrupted somehow.

Everything else looks fine.

The thing is whenever I run the pkg the file -rw-r-lr--   1 root     root           0 Jul 22 09:22 .ai.pkg.zone.lock-afdb66cf-1dd1-11b2-a049-000d560ddc3e is re-created at the /tmp...

Doesnt this mean that the problem is not with the okg file...?

Anyway I will try to DL the file again...

Tks

No lucky with the new download....

As I mentioned before the same package worked in a similar machine...

Is there any other way to check if there is any pkgadd stucked?

except for the running process.

it should be:

ps -ef | grep pkg

did you reboot ?

No I didnt reboot... actually I cant reboot this machine....

i think there is another process of pkgadd try the following command:
# ps -eaf|grep pkg|grep -v grep|awk '{print $2}'|xargs kill -9

Tks
