---------- Post updated at 12:58 AM ---------- Previous update was at 12:49 AM ----------

after installing the packages from download manager i tryd it agin this is what it looks like
drdex@opensolaris:~$ pkg set-authority -P -O http://pkg.opensolaris.org/contrib/ contrib.opensolaris.org

pkg: Could not operate on /var/pkg/cfg_cache
because of insufficient permissions. Please try the command again using pfexec
or otherwise increase your privileges.
drdex@opensolaris:~$ pkg install wine
DOWNLOAD PKGS FILES XFER (MB)
wine 0/1 0/1082 0.00/33.20
pkg: An unexpected error happened while preparing for install:
pkg: An error was encountered while attempting to retrieve package or file data for the requested operation.
pkg: Unable to create download directory /var/pkg/download/incoming-1788: Permission denied

Part that should have warned you highlighted:
You obviously haven't the required privileges. Try again that way as the first message already suggests:

Code:

pfexec pkg set-authority -P -O http://pkg.opensolaris.org/contrib/ contrib.opensolaris.org
pfexec pkg install wine

drdex@opensolaris:~$ pfexec pkg set-authority -P -O http://pkg.opensolaris.org/contrib/ contrib.opensolaris.org
