Hi All,
I wonder if someone can help. My rpm db was corrupted.
So I ran rm -f __db* followed rpm rebuild db which ran OK. But I keep getting the following error.
error: cannot open Packages database in /var/lib/rpm warning: kernel-source-2.4.21-20.0.1.EL.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 025e513b error: cannot open Packages database in /var/lib/rpm

Have you upgraded the rpm package since your last reboot? ... sometimes after an rpm upgrade, I have to restart my machine.

That is if the actual RPM package is upgraded ... ie moving from rpm-4.2.2 to rpm-4.2.3, etc.
Not after installing an rpm :)
yes the rpm was upgraded On Tuesday 18 Jan 2005 11:54 am, Johnny Hughes wrote:

that sounds like you don't have permission to read the rpm db. Are you sure that you are running as root or that you didn't change the permissions on /var/lib/rpm?

Here is the full story.
I was trying to remove an rpm from my server and a typo meant that I accidently removed the rpm-4.2.3-10.i386.rpm RPM (ouch !!!).
In an attempt to recover I have another server with Centor 3.4 so I copied the /bin/rpm script and /usr/lib/rpmrc script on to my knakered server (I thought the rpm had not changed between these two releases). I made the permission on /usr/lib/rpm the as those on the working server.
The last resort is to re-install the server. But if someone can send me the /bin/rpm and /use/lib/rpmrc files then that may work am I right ?
