The above just hung for me and didn't do anything.

I found https://github.com/WhitewaterFoundry/Pengwin-Enterprise/issues/20 and followed:

sudo -s
cd /var/lib/rpm
rpm --rebuilddb
dd if=/dev/zero of=__db.001 bs=1M count=1
dd if=/dev/zero of=__db.002 bs=1M count=1
dd if=/dev/zero of=__db.003 bs=1M count=1
rpm -qa rpm
yum install vim

Which seems to have fixed the issue now.

Thankyou for your help.

In my case it was enough to simply delete the lock file

sudo rm /var/lib/rpm/.rpm.lock

from fedora-remix-for-wsl.

sudo dnf upgrade --refresh rpm glibc
sudo rm /var/lib/rpm/.rpm.lock
sudo dnf upgrade dnf

Same issue, this worked for me.

I tried this and it didn't fix my issue:

sudo dnf upgrade --refresh rpm glibc
sudo rm /var/lib/rpm/.rpm.lock
sudo dnf upgrade dnf

I'm not a fan of sudo -s so I tried this and it worked:

cd /var/lib/rpm/
sudo rpm --rebuilddb
sudo rpm -qa rpm

I didn't need to use dd to zero out __db.xxx files. I would have tried that next if I still had issues.

from fedora-remix-for-wsl.

simply, this worked in my case [windows WSL fedora 31]

In my case it was enough to simply delete the lock file

sudo rm /var/lib/rpm/.rpm.lock

from fedora-remix-for-wsl.

In my case, it was useful for installing libcanberrra in RHEL8

cd /var/lib/rpm
rpm --rebuilddb
rpm -qa rpm

yum install -y libcanberra-gtk*

Result:
Installed:
libcanberra-gtk2-0.30-16.el8.x86_64
Complete!

PROBLEM BEFORE
yum install -y libcanberra-gtk

Result:
Running transaction
RPM: error: db5 error(-30969) from dbenv->open: BDB0091 DB_VERSION_MISMATCH: Database environment version mismatch
RPM: error: cannot open Packages index using db5 - (-30969)
RPM: error: cannot open Packages database in /var/lib/rpm

from fedora-remix-for-wsl.

I just had this problem and rm -f /var/lib/rpm/__db* fixed it at once.

from fedora-remix-for-wsl.

@crramirez's solution worked for me too, even if the two dnf commands said "nothing to do" haha.

from fedora-remix-for-wsl.

Just removing the lock file worked for me, as well.

from fedora-remix-for-wsl.

works for me !!! RHEL8

from fedora-remix-for-wsl.

I can't comment on the store version, but @Thorfin's resolution worked for me in 1.30.1.0 that I downloaded from here.

from fedora-remix-for-wsl.

After installing many packages just fine this error randomly occurred when trying to dnf install cmake ninja-build. After removing the lock file and cleaning packages with sudo dnf clean packages I was able to successfully install the packages.

Hello @BlackthornYugen

Are you using Fedora Remix 33? or 32?

@crramirez oops... I'm running Centos 8 Stream. This page turned up in a google search for my issue. I didn't even notice it was a Fedora for WSL issue.

==> /etc/os-release <==
NAME="CentOS Stream"
VERSION="8"
ID="centos"
ID_LIKE="rhel fedora"
VERSION_ID="8"
PLATFORM_ID="platform:el8"
PRETTY_NAME="CentOS Stream 8"
ANSI_COLOR="0;31"

Good to know that there is a solution for this for CentOS Stream and RHEL 8

This worked for me as well, thanks

Yes, because it fails when trying to grow the files. The dd command creates files with 1MB with enough space to fill.

from fedora-remix-for-wsl.

Run this

sudo dnf upgrade --refresh rpm glibc
sudo rm /var/lib/rpm/.rpm.lock
sudo dnf upgrade dnf

And try again.

I've tried "normal fixes" for this issue but they don't fix it in this case, I think it might be to do with the WSL element?

from fedora-remix-for-wsl.

A fix was uploaded to the store with the version 1.30.5.0 if someone can check if the error is gone away.

from fedora-remix-for-wsl.

yep, removing the lock file is enough.

from fedora-remix-for-wsl.

Try the new script upgrade.sh and see if it fixes it as well

Does anyone know why the dd commands fix this?

from fedora-remix-for-wsl.

@DrLove73 excellent. Also, sudo rm /var/lib/rpm/.rpm.lock helps.

from fedora-remix-for-wsl.

Below command worked for me

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

Thanks for posting. This worked for me

from fedora-remix-for-wsl.

What the real reason for the problem 'dbenv version mismatch'? And How to fix it in the source code? such as rpm or librpm

from fedora-remix-for-wsl.

I just needed to rebuild de database and it worked:
cd /var/lib/rpm
rpm --rebuilddb

from fedora-remix-for-wsl.

Run this

sudo dnf upgrade --refresh rpm glibc
sudo rm /var/lib/rpm/.rpm.lock
sudo dnf upgrade dnf

And try again.
