Missing man pages on SunOS Rel.5.10

Hello,
last week I installed SunOS Release 5.10 on my "new" 220R.
Unfortunately there seem to be no man pages, although I installed the End-User software package.

Yes I know there are lots of similar topics and I hope you will help me nevertheless.

Which further information do you need?

# man                                                                          
Syntax: man [-] [-adFlrt] [-M path] [-T macro-package ] [ -s section ] name ...
        man [-M path] -k keyword ...                                           
        man [-M path] -f file ...                                              
# man man                                                                      
No manual entry for man.                                      
# man ifconfig                                                                 
No manual entry for ifconfig.                                 
# man iostat                                                                   
No manual entry for iostat.

Try installing "SUNWman" from your installation media.

That also may be a problem with the MANPATH environment variable. The default install always puts up the man pages....

find / -type d -name man

All of these directories need to be in MANPATH if you want complete "coverage"
The default for man is not /usr/sbin/share/man where the iostat man page lives,
since

man man

does give results I would assume the correct packages are on there.

What is the output of

pkginfo -l | grep SUNWman

That's precisely the reason why you are missing the SUNWman package. The SUNWCuser package cluster doesn't contain it. It is only included in the SUNWCprog (Developer) and higher clusters.

@bartus11
I will do, thanks.

@jim_mcnamara
"Your" command created an output of 14 directories.

# find / -type d -name man
/usr/share/webconsole/man
/usr/share/man
/usr/openwin/share/man
/usr/lib/gnome-private/share/man
/usr/lib/cc-ccr/man
/usr/postgres/8.2/man
.
.
.
/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/schemas/desktop/gnome/url-handlers/man

@fpmurphy
Nothing

@jlliagre
Okay, thank you for the explaination. Nice to know the real reason.

@all
I'll keep you up-to-date regarding this topic.

Following are the steps which I'm going to try one after another:

1\) Try adding the 14 direcotories \(see my answer to jim_mcnamara above\) to PATH
2\) Afterwards I'd follow bartus' approach
3\) If that also fails \(no.2\), I'd simply reinstall the whole system and choose "Developer" or higher.

UPDATE:
Now all is working fine. I just added the missing package like this:

# cd /cdrom/sol_10_811_sparc/Solaris_10/Product
# pkgadd -d . SUNWman

I decided to start immediately with the installation of the missing package because it was not listed in "pkginfo".

Thank you for your support

update ^^
