1 Use the uname -a command to determine the version of SunOS/Solaris that
is installed on your workstation.
Table 1 lists the patch file archive name for each version of Solaris.
2 Create a new working directory and move to that directory by entering:
mkdir /tmp/patch
cd /tmp/patch
3 Download the patch file archive to the working directory and untar the file by
entering:
tar -xvf jre131_solxx_patchBundle.tar
where:
xx is 56, 57, or 58
4 Run the localcheck Perl script included in the patch bundle to determine if the
JRE 1.3.1 patches are applied by entering:
perl localcheck
If the script reports that all patches are up to date, you do not need to install the
patches. Proceed to the next section, “Installing the JRE in a SunOS/Solaris
environment” on page 31.
5 If the script indicates that patches are required for your system, you should
run the install script pinst. Make the install script file executable by entering:
chmod a+x pinst
Table 1 Solaris patch files
SunOS/Solaris version Patch file name

5.7/2.7 jre131_sol57_patchBundle.tar
5.8/2.8 jre131_sol58_patchBundle.tar
Note: Perl must be installed on the system and it must be included in the execution path
for this script to work.
