<div dir="ltr"><div><div>Martin,<br><br></div>I downloaded the development version and tried it. A whole bunch of new patches appeared. I also discovered that my firewall was blocking a (new to me) Oracle subnet for downloads: <a href="http://209.17.0.0/18">209.17.0.0/18</a>.<br>
<br></div>For me, this change was a silent failure. I was not seeing patches, yet thought that everything was ok. Yuck. I am down to two Sun machines and will be happy to get rid of them this Summer.<br></div><div class="gmail_extra">

Hi Dennis and all,<br>
<br>
as reported, patch downloads stopped to work yesterday. The first problem was that there seems to be a new certificate used for HTTPS on <a href="http://login.oracle.com" target="_blank">login.oracle.com</a>, signed by different CA certificates than before.<br>
<br>
While this problem could be worked around, patch downloads still failed as <a href="http://login.oracle.com" target="_blank">login.oracle.com</a> answered all authentication requests with "401 Unauthorized". This second problem seems to have gone away (or fixed by Oracle) over night.<br>
<br>
I fixed the problem with the HTTPS certs by including the necessary CA certs in the current development release of PCA:<br>
<br>
<a href="http://www.par.univie.ac.at/solaris/pca/develop/pca" target="_blank">http://www.par.univie.ac.at/<u></u>solaris/pca/develop/pca</a><br>
<br>
Please try that and see if the downloads work again and let me know about it. I will then release a new stable release of PCA.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
