Hi there

Ever since I upgraded RPM to rpm-4.0.3-0.6.6x.i386.rpm and the
database to db3-3.1.17-4.6x.i386 , I've been experiencing problems. I
think my RPM database has been screwed up. is there a solution for
this other than re-installing my entire system ?

Here's the problem:

( root@Virgin )-( Thu May 31 01:49:39am )-( /usr/src/rpm )
# rpm -i rpm-4.0.2-5x.i386.rpm
error: cannot open Packages database in /var/lib/rpm

And when I try to issue a rebuilddb...

( root@Virgin )-( Thu May 31 01:50:10am )-( /usr/src/rpm )
# rpm --rebuilddb
error: cannot open Packages index

As you can see I'm issuing these commands as root...I'm on Linux
version 2.2.17 on a RedHat 6.2

I would appreciate some help here. Thanks guys.

Regards
Gerald
