[SOLVED]Cant update

[jeffshepherd]

Hi everyone,

I'm finding I can't download any updates today, I keep getting the following error message,

"A fatal error occurred. Couldn't open RPM DB() at /user/lib/perl5/vendor_perl5.14.2/Rpmdrake/open_db.pm line 74.."

Can anyone help me with this?

Thanks,
Jeff

Hi akdengi ,

Can you explain what you mean please?

This situation is similar as you has broken rpm database. Run this command from root and restore rpm base and all will be work.
