Patchadd failure - non-global zones

807559Nov 8 2009 — edited Nov 10 2009
Hi there

Having issues running patchadd. Can't find libcrypto.so.0.9.7. The file exists and have attempted using crle and LD_LIBRARY_PATH to point patchadd in the right direction. This occurs when zones in a halted state. If I start zones then patchadd works OK, however not an option when trying to install patch bundle.

Note, we do have openssh & openssl installed which use libcrypto.so.0.9.8
Preparing checklist for non-global zone check...

Checking non-global zones...

ld.so.1: pdo: fatal: libcrypto.so.0.9.7: open failed: No such file or directory
 Non-global zone check failed. No change made to the System.                   
Patchadd exiting.                                                              
Any suggestions?

Cheers

Garry

After much trial and error located the problem.

It would seem that when patching non-global zones, Solaris 10 sets up a "live upgrade environment" in which various directories are mounted over temporary "lu" mount points. Sorry, no longer have a screen dump. When patchadd was failing the zone was left in a state of "mounted" - (rectified by running zoneadm -z zonename unmount). While in this mounted state, I could zlogin and run an ldd on patchadd (ldd `which patchadd`). This resulted in libcrypto.so.0.9.7 pointing to "file not found".

The cause of this was due to Openssh & Openssl being installed over the standard distribution. Copied libcrypto.so.0.9.7 from /usr/sfw/lib to /usr/lib and problem went away
