Subject: Installing patch

Hi people !

        I tried to install patch 103667-01 on our server running
solaris2.5 but got the following error:

# ./installpatch .
Generating list of files to be patched...
Verifying sufficient filesystem capacity (exhaustive method) ...
Installing patch packages...
pkgadd: ERROR: checkinstall script did not complete successfully
The installation of patch 103667-01 was interrupted.
Installpatch needs to be re-invoked to ensure proper installation of the
patch.

Backoutpatch is terminating.

Installpatch is terminating.

-----------------------------------------------------------

        And here's the solution:

        Install the patches from /tmp directory (Weird, isn't it ?)
Thanks a lot for the people who took the time to help this poor lost soul.
:)

Best Wishes,
