RPM error: db4 error(-30988)

Posted on December 30, 2008 by Cecep Mahbub

Hari ini menemukan error saat menjalankan perintah rpm:

error: db4 error(-30988) from dbcursor->c_get: DB_PAGE_NOTFOUND: Requested page not found

Googling sebentar, ketemu juga cara solve masalahnya. Saya salin-tempel di bawah (sebagai catatan juga buat saya).

This command will remove the cache which (for whatever reason) does
not have
a requested page:
     rm -f /var/lib/rpm/__db*

Note that what you *DO NOT WANT* to do is
     rpm --rebuilddb
because you will have data loss from recreating your rpmdb with a
damaged cache
still present. Doing --rebuilddb after removing the __db* files won't
hurt (but is likely
unnecessary).

Removing the cache "fixes" the problem every case I''ve seen or know
about.
