Hi,
I have a fairly big problem with a Redhat 6.2 box. What has happened is I
upgraded my rpm to version to 4.0.3 from version 3, with also upgrading
db3-3 (unsure of what version it was) and it now comes up with errors!
When I installed them, they went through without a hiccup, no forcing it or
forcing dependencies, but when I try to rpm -ivh on any package I get the
error message "error: cannot open packages database in /var/lib/rpm". I have
looked in that directory and packages.rpm is there and the right
permissions.
By the way I installed the packages as root, and trying to run it as root,
so its not permission problems like google suggested.
I have searched google to find about 6 links, all relating to one particular
package problem, "Skels" or something, which I am not installing.
any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks and regards,
Scott Ragen
