[Summary] Patchpro on sol9 cannot download patches - Error, caught No valid download source

The solution was:  remove of an older j2sdk and installation of actual
j2sdk-1_4_2_06 Package (and installation of the j2sdk solaris patches,
too).

(But I don't know if in the meanwhile SUN has changed anything on their
website.)

valid download source


Hi,

I want to use a Ultra1 (Solaris 9, installed with newest Recommended
Patch Cluster) with Patch Pro 2.2.
I installed pproSunOSsparc5.9jre2.2.tar.gz and the appropriate patch
116126-03, and I checked my proxy configuration.
Everything should be OK, but if I execute patchpro I get the following
error:

root@toronto:/(517) > /opt/SUNWppro/bin/pprosvc -l

No patches required.

If I look to /var/adm/messages, I find:

Does anybody have an idea to solce the problem?
(I installed the same on a Solaris8 machine and there it's running.)
