I did: rm -f /var/lib/rpm/__* rpm --rebuilddb
To see if that would fix it... now I am getting this error when I try the rpm --rebuilddb error: db4 error(5) from dbcursor->c_get: Input/output error Any one know what the problem is and how to fix it.. This is a live mysql server, and I can't run mandrake update... If I can't get this working, I'm gonna have to update it manually. any help would be most appreciated... rgds Franki -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Franki Sent: Tuesday, 4 February 2003 8:26 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [expert] rpm error.
