We have an application that manages/unmanages a widget depending on
certain logic. It works fine on almost every box we run. We set up a
new standalone Solaris 11 machine for QA and the widget is always
managed, it won't unmanage.

Has anyone seen something like this before? Where a widget refuses to
unmanage? I know the code is good because its been working in the field
for a long time. The only issue is on this new box that we just
created. Everything but this one widget on this one screen seems fine.

Thanks.

...Jake

Probably too much water from Sandy...

What kind of widget is it? Or is it a gadget? Is it the direct child of a Shell?

Thanks, Fred. Turns out to have been a red herring. The
manage/unmanage logic actually had a bug in it that was tripped by an
obscure database condition seen only on that box. When I made that
database available to one of my other boxes we replicated it right away.
