Can someone help me out? (FIXED!)
I keep getting this error and I can not get it to go away.
I've tried deleting the db and rebuilding it. Any suggestions?
[root@ns1 brendancarlson]# yum update

@zinnvps already went through all that. Short of asking my VPS provider to do the Hardware Node.

Figured it out. Thanks all. This can be closed.
Just in case anyone else down the road has the problem, how'd you resolve it?
1.) reboot (probably don't have to do this)
2.) run all the commands on http://linuxhostingsupport.net/blog/yum-update-error-rpmdb-open-failed
3.) reboot again
4.) yum-update
5.) Should be fixed
