Looking into it more, it looks like after RedHat released Update 4 for EL WS, some package got upgraded and now the rpm database can't be read.
I'm not sure how to fix this, or even where to begin other than rebuilding my workstations...

Hi all,
I went away on vacation for the last two weeks and came back to find all my machines reporting the following error in the nightly cron log:
rpmdb: Program version 4.2 doesn't match environment version error: db4 error(22) from dbenv->open: Invalid argument error: cannot open Packages index using db3 - Invalid argument (22) error: cannot open Packages database in /var/lib/rpm
It repeats this many times over. I tried running up2date but get the same error. Any ideas?
Ryan,
I'm not having this problem, but if it is indeed an RPM database issue, you can rebuild it with the following:
rm -f /var/lib/rpm/__db.00? rpm --rebuilddb
That *should* take care of it, I hope.
HTH,
Ben
