I'm trying to install mysql devel rpm on RHEL 5 and I'm stuck at this
error and cant proceed further.
"error: can't create transaction lock on /"
You may have a trailing lock - ls /var/lib/rpm
Check for other rpm/yum processes running. If none then:
rm -f /var/lib/rpm/__db*
Also, just to add for RHEL your first stop really should be support.
Simply to collate: I have no problems with this on CentOS 5
(mysql-devel-5.0.22-2.1) or Fedora FC6 (mysql-devel-5.0.27-1.fc6) - both
are the versions yum has updated to. Just as well, since there's no
official support on either :)
