Corrupted rpmdb recovery

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I've got a FC4 system. While doing an yum update today, the power was cut. Upon booting the machine again and trying to resume the update, yum complained about a corrupted db. I initially tried "rm -f /var/lib/rpm/__db*". Nothing. Moved onto "rpm --rebuilddb". Only ~100 packages made it back into the db from the total of 1000+. Upon googling around, I found out about rpm --justdb. My /var/log/rpmpkgs file is intact, all the previously installed files are in it. But upon running "rpm --justdb --notriggers --noscripts -Uvh /var/log/rpmpkgs", rpm complains (of course) about the missing rpm files. Is there any way of automatically downloading the required files and serving them to rpm? yum --downloadonly seems to have vanished, too.
I'd be most grateful for your suggestions.
TIA
