10 Recommended Patch Not Working
Hello,
The 10_Recommended update failed on 3 of 191, which was patch 119254-73 (the 1st 2 patches were skipped). I looked up the patch on Sunsolve (
http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=1-21-119254), which stated that 121133-02 was a required patch for 119254-73. I did a "showrev -p | grep 121133" and found that 121133 has been obsoleted by 120011-14. So it looks like I have what is required to install the patch. Oddly enough, patch 119254-73 deals w/ patching the system.
Several logs were created and the common error message is that "Patch 119254-73 failed to install due to a failure produced by pkgadd"
Another error message was:
"This appears to be an attempt to install the same architecture and version of a package that is already installed. The installation will attempt to overwrite this package. ... Cannot open pkgadd: ERROR: checkinstall script did not complete successfully".
I'm certainly not a Solaris expert, so I'm not sure where to go from here. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

stg-push
STG-PUSH(1) StGit Manual STG-PUSH(1)
NAME
stg-push - Push one or more patches onto the stack
SYNOPSIS
stg push [options] [<patch1>] [<patch2>] [<patch3>..<patch4>]
DESCRIPTION
Push one or more patches (defaulting to the first unapplied one) onto the stack. The push operation allows patch reordering by commuting
them with the three-way merge algorithm. If there are conflicts while pushing a patch, those conflicts are written to the work tree, and
the command halts. Conflicts raised during the push operation have to be fixed and the git add --update command run (alternatively, you may
undo the conflicting push with stg undo).
The command also notifies when the patch becomes empty (fully merged upstream) or is modified (three-way merged) by the push operation.
OPTIONS
-a, --all
Push all the unapplied patches.
-n NUMBER, --number NUMBER
Push the specified number of patches.
--reverse
Push the patches in reverse order.
--set-tree
Push the patches, but don't perform a merge. Instead, the resulting tree will be identical to the tree that the patch previously
created.
This can be useful when splitting a patch by first popping the patch and creating a new patch with some of the changes. Pushing the
original patch with --set-tree will avoid conflicts and only the remaining changes will be in the patch.
-k, --keep
Keep the local changes.
-m, --merged
Check for patches merged upstream.
