When I start the pkg manager is takes a moment to refresh the
database. but then it does not show any installed pkgs with the
check mark. And if I check a pkg to install or whatever, the
`Install/Update' button stays greyed out, as does the `Remove'
button.
So it offers neither to install or remove anything.
pkg publisher shows:
PUBLISHER TYPE STATUS URI
release111b (preferred) origin online http://pkg.opensolaris.org/release/
I've never heard of this particular issue before. Although, I'd note
that your publisher shouldn't be named release111b; it should be
'opensolaris.org'.
I'm a little nervous about proceeding with cmdline pkg commands, since
it seems something is wrong somewhere.
The cli tool will provide more informative output.
What's the output of 'pkg list' ?
In the manager under `manage repositories' I see the name is correct,
the `preferred' button and `enabled' buttons are checked. And when I
click `modify' I see the url is correct as well.
I don't want to upgrade from the released version... I just want to
install and configure a web server.
What else can I post here that will help diagnose the problem?
If you start packagemanager from a terminal window (as a privileged
user) you might see additional error information.
Either way, your best bet is to file a bug at defect.opensolaris.org
under development -> pkg -> gui.
