One caveat: make sure, after you successfully download 119254-78, that you test another patch. The reason I say that is because I was able to download 119254-78 and 125555-08 but was not able to download any other. 3 others on the list had the same experience. So, being able to download 119254-78 is necessary but not sufficient proof [falling back to my math days] that everything is working. I still had to configure my MOS account settings to get everything ship shape.

Let's try a direct download with wget, outside of PCA to isolate the problem. Try a command like this (with your real MOS user/passwd of course): /opt/csw/bin/wget --http-user='[email protected]' --http-passwd='secret' --no-check-certificate --execute https_proxy=http://proxyconf.vlb.infineon.com:81 https://getupdates.oracle.com/all_unsigned/119254-78.zip -O 119254-78.zip If that doesn't work, the problem is outside of PCA (wget or Oracle). If it does work we'll concentrate on your PCA setup - at first double-check that you set user and passwd correctly; for a beginning, try to not specify them in a pca.conf file or on the command line but let PCA ask for it instead. > Found /usr/sfw/bin/wget (1.10.2, 11002, https) If possible, you might want to install the most recent wget patch (125215-03). This should up /usr/sfw/bin/wget to v1.12. I don't think that this is the reason for the problems, though - I've tested various versions of wget with Oracle's server, and found no problems. Plus, currently PCA is using this one anyway: > Found /opt/csw/bin/wget (1.11, 11100, https) > Using /opt/csw/bin/wget This will change automatically when /usr/sfw/bin/wget has higher version.
