Thanks to WC Jones and the others that replied to my original e-mail which is below. After trying a few things, I simply did a patchrm on three of the patches that were installed. The patches causing me the problem were: 109148-26 and 108994-29, 109327-11. I'm not sure which one or all of them that were causing the problem. But, because of the fact that the problem corrupted the root file system every time I tried to shutdown the system, I didn't really have the time to find out which patch was causing the problem. Thanks again for the help! John On Friday, I installed the Recommended and Security patches to a x86 Solaris 8 system. After the patches were installed, I did a reconfigure boot. This morning, when I try to shutdown the system, I get this error message: # Shutdown -y -g0 -i6 ld.so.1: /sbin/init: fatal: relocation error: file /etc/lib/nss_files.so.1: symbol__nsl_fopen: referenced symbol not found I couldn't find the exact message with a google search, but one close to this suggested to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to /usr/lib. Before setting the env variable, this variable was set to nothing. After setting it, I was able to get a little further in the shut down process, but then the system complained giving almost the exact same message expect it was looking for "/sbin/uadmin" instead of "/sbin/init". _______________________________________________ sunmanagers mailing list sunmanagers@sunmanagers.org http://www.sunmanagers.org/mailman/listinfo/sunmanagersReceived on Tue Nov 4 14:01:06 2003
