Try removing the cached packages at /var/opt/csw/pkgutil/packages, probably select a different mirror and retry.

Thanks for taking such a quick look. Removing the cache did not work. How can I select a different mirror? Thanks.

Unfortunately this seems to be a pkgadd problem. Every package that I download on this solaris 9 box fails. Even a manual pkgadd -d on the downloaded packages. I must be missing some pkgadd patch.

Thanks for your help. I think we can close this unless you have any insight.
