rebuild Packages DB

[mye]

I have problem with  /var/lib/rpm/Packages file in RHEL4.
File is like broken already.

[root at sv ~]# up2date --list
rpmdb: illegal flag specified to DB->open
error: cannot open Packages index using db3 - Invalid argument (22)
error: cannot open Packages database in /var/lib/rpm
An error has occurred:
exceptions.TypeError
See /var/log/up2date for more information
[root at sv ~]#

[root at sv rpm]# rpm -vv --rebuilddb
D: rebuilding database /var/lib/rpm into /var/lib/rpmrebuilddb.20117
D: creating directory /var/lib/rpmrebuilddb.20117
D: opening old database with dbapi 3

D: opening  db index       /var/lib/rpm/Packages rdonly mode=0x0
rpmdb: illegal flag specified to DB->open
D: closed   db index       /var/lib/rpm/Packages
D: closed   db environment /var/lib/rpm/Packages
エラー: cannot open Packages index

I traid to fix like this, but the Packages file size is too smaller.
And then I check use rpm -qa, its nothing.

cd /var/lib/rpm
mkdir bak
mv __db* bak
mv Packages Packages.org
/usr/lib/rpm/rpmdb_dump Packages.org | /usr/lib/rpm/rpmdb_load Packages.2
/usr/lib/rpm/rpmdb_verify Packages
rpm --rebuilddb -vv

I deleted alaso __db.* file, but no change.

Does anyone have same problem and solved it ?

Please help me.

Thanks
