RPM Segmentation Fault

While I was try to upgrade one of the RPM package on SuSE Linux Server, I’m getting an error message as below:


planetmy1:/var/spool/locks # rpm -Fvh http://server01/openssl-0.9.8a-18.26.x86_64.rpm
Retrieving http://server01/openssl-0.9.8a-18.26.x86_64.rpm
Preparing... Segmentation fault### ( 50%

In /var/log/messages, I can see similar error:
kernel: rpm[21904]: segfault at 0000000000bbbfb0 rip 00002b13dd4c51ba rsp 00007fffcd8c0150 error 4

The solution is:

[root@planetmy1 ~]# rpm --rebuilddb

use –rebuilddb to rebuild the database indices from the installed package headers.
