Hi all
I finally gave up on Gentoo for my pianist's computer today and installed Redhat 9. It's currently reminding me why I don't use an RPM based distro myself, though it is pretty nice and once I get a few things fixed it will be great for my pianist (for one he needs a GUI for just about everything and Gentoo doesn't provide that).
Here's the issue: It's with RPM-
Any time I do anything RPM related (be it installing a new one, running rpmdb --initdb gives it too (thought that might be the issue, but I've not used RPM in at least a year)) I get this: (this one specifically from rpmdb --initdb)
rpmdb: unable to join the environment
error: db4 error(11) from dbenv->open: Resource temporarily unavailable
error: cannot open Packages index using db3 - Resource temporarily unavailable (11)
Similar stuff occurs when I'm trying to install an RPM.
This is an SGI-installer based Redhat 9, no updates, etc. (partly because the system is currently modemless due to the many recent thunderstorms). Any ideas of what I could do to fix RPM?
