I cannot re/install any software package. This is the command line & error I get while runnning kpackage:
<eplacepkgs /mnt/cdrom/RedHat/RPMS/kdeadmin-2.2-8.i386.rpm;echo RESULT=$? rpmdb: unable to join the environment error: db3 error(11) from dbenv->open: Resource temporarily unavailable error: cannot open Packages index using db3 - Resource temporarily unavailable (11) error: cannot open Packages database in /var/lib/rpm RESULT=1 Another related problem: I have repeatedly tried to run up2date and it still doesn't work (see also support correspondence: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ). A couple of things seem pretty messed up. When I run up2date from the root command line this is the error I get: [root@bgp543409bgs root]# up2date & [1] 2270 rpmdb: unable to join the environment error: db3 error(11) from dbenv->open: Resource temporarily unavailable error: cannot open Packages index using db3 - Resource temporarily unavailable (11) Traceback (innermost last): File "/usr/sbin/up2date", line 996, in ? main() File "/usr/sbin/up2date", line 321, in main up2date.updateLoginInfo() File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/up2date.py", line 426, in updateLoginInfo loginInfo = login() File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/up2date.py", line 336, in login maybeUpdateVersion() File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/up2date.py", line 508, in maybeUpdateVersion systemVer = getVersion() File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/up2date.py", line 453, in getVersion db = openrpmdb() File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/up2date.py", line 579, in openrpmdb raise RpmError(_("Could not open RPM database for reading. Perhaps it is already in use?")) up2date_client.up2date.RpmError: RPM error. The message was: Could not open RPM database for reading. Perhaps it is already in use? [1]+ Done up2date FYI: I ran: up2date --configure --nox This is how I currently have it set up: [root@bgp543409bgs root]# up2date --configure --nox 0. storageDir /var/spool/up2date 1. networkSetup Yes 2. headerCacheSize 40 3. httpProxy 4. debug No 5. useGPG Yes 6. networkRetries 5 7. removeSkipList ['kernel*'] 8. retrieveOnly No 9. enableProxy No 10. keepAfterInstall No 11. proxyPassword 12. proxyUser 13. headerFetchCount 10 14. versionOverride 15. enableProxyAuth No 16. noSSLServerURL http://www.rhns.redhat.com/XMLRPC 17. noReplaceConfig No 18. noBootLoader No 19. systemIdPath /etc/sysconfig/rhn/systemid 20. serverURL https://www.rhns.redhat.com/XMLRPC 21. pkgSkipList ['kernel*'] 22. adminAddress ['root@localhost'] 23. forceInstall No 24. fileSkipList [] 25. retrieveSource No And finally when I run:rpm --rebuilddb I get: [root@bgp543409bgs root]# rpm --rebuilddb rpmdb: write: 0xbfffd520, 8192: No space left on device error: db3 error(28) from dbenv->open: No space left on device error: cannot open Packages index Is this also a related problem? Recently when I try to print (RH 7.2, i686, HPD722C) I get the error message: "cannot open connection to localhost - Connection refused. Make sure LPD server is running on the server." And when I type: "/sbin/service lpd restart" - I get: Stopping lpd:[FAILED] Starting lpd:[ OK ] I believe this LPD FAILURE is the crux of the problem....But I've no idea how to fix it. -- Carole Womeldorf [EMAIL PROTECTED] (609)799-4232 _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
