That error means that the package that is supposed to be patched is not on your machine already. You may need to install (or reinstall) the software before this patch will work.

I believe if you look at the patchfinder on Sun's website it will tell you which packages the patch modifies. Then do a pkginfo on each of those packages to see if any are missing.
