This information looks to be irrelevant to the current issue unless what was previously installed was also Solaris 11.

In any case, it can't be a MANPATH issue and is very unlikely to be a wrong PATH either, "man" being in /bin "and" /usr/bin.

The most plausible reason is you simply didn't install the "man" command. To fix this, simply run:

Code:
pkg install doctools

or

Code:
sudo pkg install doctools
