Hi, We have a problem with our pca patch proxy. I noticed it had stopped working after our last round of patching (this may be unrelated)
I get the following errors when attempting to download new patches (on the proxy host, downloading its own patches): # ./pca -d missing Using /var/tmp/patchdiag.xref from Jan/23/09 Host: myhost(SunOS 5.10/Generic_137111-08/sparc/sun4u) List: missing (61/2007) Patch IR CR RSB Age Synopsis ------ -- - -- --- --- ------------------------------------------------------- 119254 59 < 63 RS- 11 SunOS 5.10: Install and Patch Utilities Patch Looking for 119254-63 (1/61) Trying http://myhost/cgi-bin/pca-proxy.cgi?

Tue Jan 27 11:18:21 2009: Cleanup <<EOF>> To me it looks like a permissions problem but for the life of me I can't figure out where. The cgi-file is owned by our apache user, our pca download directory is owned by the apache user, /etc/pca.conf is owned by our apache user. Can anyone help shed any light on this please?
