Hello,

I am running RH9 with the latest kernel and get the following when I try 
to use rpm:
rpm -qa
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)
error: cannot open Packages database in /var/lib/rpm
no packages

any ideas?

Thanks,
Steve

1) Later releases of RPM (from Fedora) have this fixed.  Fedora-development
currently has rpm-4.3-0.7.  Pre-reqs are your problem. :)

2) 'LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1 rpm -qa' also works around it.

rm -fr /var/lib/rpm/__db*

That should fix your problems.

Hello gentle people,

I searched for other problems like this but to no avail.
Any ideas why my swapon from rh9 won't work?


[root@joker root]# mkswap /dev/hda2
Setting up swapspace version 1, size = 1077506 kB
[root@joker root]# mkswap /dev/hde2
Setting up swapspace version 1, size = 542863 kB
[root@joker root]# swapon -v -a
swapon on /dev/hda2
swapon: /dev/hda2: Function not implemented
swapon on /dev/hde2
swapon: /dev/hde2: Function not implemented

Thanks,
Steve

Hi.

Does .config include CONFIG_SWAP (in config it's called "Support for
paging of anonymous memory", found under 'General Setup').
