Problem with yum database

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

 



I had invoked
sudo yum -y update

only to realize that I had to fix a repo file before doing the update.
So, I killed the process from another gnome terminal, fixed
the file and retried to update. Now the database is hosed.
I tried to do clean all, and it also fails the same way:

$ sudo yum clean all
rpmdb: Thread/process 7604/3079239360 failed: Thread died in Berkeley DB 
library
error: db3 error(-30974) from dbenv->failchk: DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal 
error, run database recovery
error: cannot open Packages index using db3 -  (-30974)
error: cannot open Packages database in /var/lib/rpm

     startupconf = config.readStartupConfig(fn, root)

     startupconf.releasever = _getsysver(startupconf.installroot, 
startupconf.distroverpkg)

What to do now??
