Just tried yum clean all but receive exactly the same error message:
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
CRITICAL:yum.main:
I do not remember the last yum update (a couple of weeks ago) going
wrong but finishing as expected.
Suggestions or ideas?
Thank you.
