[Pcsclite-muscle] Solaris 11 and pcsc-lite

Mon Nov 23 20:45:31 PST 2015

Hi All,

I know this may not be the best place to ask, but I am really exhausted
from trying to find information from Google and Oracle about their
pcsc-lite on Solaris 11.

What I have now is a Solaris 11 box with a PC/SC reader (SCM SCR-331 DI)
attached to the USB port. My intention is to access a smart card using
PC/SC using the locally attached reader on the USB port.

I have downloaded the Solaris PCSC_lite_1.3 and CCID_IFD_1.3.10 and set up
according to Oracle's instructions (installing the packages etc.) After
installing the packages I expected the rdrlist in the pcsctools directory
would list out the locally installed reader, but what I got is
"SCardEstablishContext error: Service not available." error message. I
checked out the documentation and it means "the pcscd service is not
started". I used "ps -ef | grep pcscd" and found the process.

I then launched the pcscd daemon in the foreground and found the message
like this:

But no matter what mode I launched the pcscd daemon, the rdrlist still
returns "SCardEstablishContext error: Service not available."

What I don't understand is, does Solaris pcsc-lite actually support
accessing an USB CCID reader attached locally to the box? If yes, what
configuration am I missing?

Thanks very much and Best Regards

William To
