Alan,
Could you provide the following information:

- What is the output of the following commands (from the terminal):

$ cat /etc/release
$ pkg version
$ pkg authority
$ beadm list

Looks like your version of OpenSolaris is pretty old. The Package 
Manager and the whole IPS have changed a lot in the last few months so 
you should update your system in order to have it working properly.

Here is a pointer to the release notes so you can update to the newer 
OpenSolaris using command line options and then Package Manager should 
work just fine:
