If you receive error messages about trouble contacting a repository or publisher, check the following issues.
Ensure that you have Internet connectivity.
Ensure the publisher origin URI is correct. Can you see the packages in the repository when you go to the URI using a web browser?
If your system is connected to a proxy server, ensure that the proxy is working correctly.
Ensure that name resolution is configured correctly.
Do you need an SSL key and certificate to access the repository?
If your packaging operations are slow, your disk might be too full. You might want to remove unused BEs to recover some space. Use the beadm list command to list the existing BEs. See the beadm(1M) man page, the Managing Boot Environments With Oracle Solaris 11 Express guide, or the Package Manager online help for instructions about removing BEs.
