I installed solaris 7 on new Intel machine. The man commane was working fine. But one fine day I switched off the power directly. Then I rebooted the system. After that all is working fine except the MAN command. If i want to search for anything using man , it says that
 
I don't have a solution for you but just a few hint:<br>1) the man path should be in /usr/share/man<br>or /usr/man<br>2) use command &quot;env&quot; to see how is the path for &quot;man&quot; command <br>3) unless you or someone else have access as root and accident (or purpose) remove/disable the path of &quot;man&quot; command then it's not there or even the &quot;man&quot; command is removed too<br><br>I don't know if these can help you, but just a thought.<br><br>
