Rpmdb error in log file

[Ryan Golhar]

Looking into it more, it looks like after RedHat released Update 4 for
EL WS, some package got upgraded and now the rpm database can't be read.


I'm not sure how to fix this, or even where to begin other than
rebuilding my workstations...

Subject: Rpmdb error in log file


Hi all,

I went away on vacation for the last two weeks and came back to find all
my machines reporting the following error in the nightly cron log:

rpmdb: Program version 4.2 doesn't match environment version
error: db4 error(22) from dbenv->open: Invalid argument
error: cannot open Packages index using db3 - Invalid argument (22)
error: cannot open Packages database in /var/lib/rpm


It repeats this many times over.  I tried running up2date but get the
same error.  Any ideas?

Ryan
