[OpenIndiana-discuss] Still having issue with zone install

[Mark Creamer]

Hi all, I'm hoping someone can give me some ideas I haven't already tried.
I bought an extremely powerful server specifically to run a bunch of zones
on OI but I can't get past this issue.

The problem is, I get all the way through the initial configuration of the
zone, but when I do install, it dies about halfway through. Here's the
output:

root at zonemaster:/zones# zoneadm -z template-basezone install
WARNING: skipping network interface 'vnic0' which is used in the global
zone.

Errors were encountered while attempting to retrieve package or file data
for
the requested operation.
Details follow:

http protocol error: code: 500 reason: Internal Server Error
URL: '
http://pkg.openindiana.org/dev/openindiana.org/file/1/10283476ec06bd1ad87b851e050b2b35c00ac78d
'.
ERROR: failed to install package
root at zonemaster:/zones#

It happens every time without fail. I've tried the server version of OI,
the desktop version, and in a VM. Same result every time.

Interestingly, it also happens with Solaris 11, although it fails on a
different package. I was able to get a zone successfully installed using
Nexenta Core, but I can't get MySQL 5.5 to install there, which is
ultimately what I want to do once the zones are set up.

Thanks for any ideas.
