RE: Database cannot be opened

["Anagnost, Ted" <Ted.Anagnost@uscellular.com>]

I can use one of those RPM's to fix the problem with my BDB install?  If so,
which one?  I just now tried installing bdb from here:
http://rpm.sh-linux.org/rpm-index-fc3/sh3/db4-utils-4.2.52-6.sh3.html and my
linux fc3 system reported that it's already installed.

What can I try next?  Thanks,

Ted

I would guess that the problem is the Berkeley DB packages have been built
on another platform, ie one with NPTL support, and are being run on a
platform without NPTL support.

I was considering offering these packages before, but they (the build for
RHEL2.1) have not really tested them much, but they may be worth a try:
