How to Configure a Support Repository for Solaris 11

Hi,

I'm trying to add the support repository without luck.

Follwing the description on

http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E23824_01/html/E24456/gljrq.html#repose-1

I had to get our SSL key and certificates. No problem with that.

The above URL tells me todo:

# pkg set-publisher \
-k /var/pkg/ssl/Oracle_Solaris_11_Support.key.pem \
-c /var/pkg/ssl/Oracle_Solaris_11_Support.certificate.pem \
-O https://pkg.oracle.com/solaris11/support solaris

on

https://pkg-register.oracle.com/register/cert_info/1415/

it's

https://pkg.oracle.com/solaris/support/

without '11'

Both commands just gives me

----------------------------------------------------------------------
pkg set-publisher: The origin URIs for 'solaris' do not appear to point to a valid pkg repository.
Please verify the repository's location and the client's network configuration.
Additional details:

Unable to contact valid package repository
Encountered the following error(s):
Unable to contact any configured publishers.
This is likely a network configuration problem.
https protocol error: code: 404 reason: Not Found
URL: 'https://pkg.oracle.com/solaris11/support'. (happened 4 times)
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Something is going wrong. Is it my fault?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

Willi

Hi Willi,

We will fix the support repo path error.

Can you clarify your comments below:

Are you saying that if you set the support repository correctly
to https://pkg.oracle.com/solaris/support, the command still
fails?

Thanks,

Cindy

Sorry, I'm kind of distorting the subject of the thread but I'm seeing
a different problem... mine is that after logging in at the site
mentioned in the directions, to get a an SSL Key nad Certificate at
http://pkg-register.oracle.com/

I must need to do some other intermediate step. I get this error
information:

,----
| There has been a problem with contacting the entitlement
| server. You will only be able to issue new certificates for public
| products. Please try again later
|
|
| CERTIFICATES FOR READER-ee1HeBsrJr+***@public.gmane.org
| No certificates issued.
`----

I don't recall now, if I did anything special about registering. Does
it happen during install, or something I would have needed to do
separately?

It is a typo. It should work with the origin set to
http://pkg.oracle.com/solaris/support . Do you have any proxy settings
that are needed in your environment?

no proxies settings neccessary here.

I started complety new and now this gives me

# pkg set-publisher \
-k /var/pkg/ssl/Oracle_Solaris_11_Support.key.pem \
-c /var/pkg/ssl/Oracle_Solaris_11_Support.certificate.pem \
-O https://pkg.oracle.com/solaris/support solaris

# pkg publisher
PUBLISHER TYPE STATUS URI
solaris origin online https://pkg.oracle.com/solaris/support/

That looks much better, but where is my relase repository?
Does 'support' contain everything from 'release'?

I think I copied some "invisible noise" during Copy&Paste from the website.

Sorry for not checking the lines hard enough.

Thanks for your help
