Are you on a VPS? if yes, you have to get your memory increased. Contact your Administrator to get this done. Ask them to restart your VPS after they allocate the memory.

If you are on a dedicated server, Check whether you have enough free memory on your server if not try to increase it.

I have a server dedicated with 1gb of ram memory. It is an installation of a new server. Still it does not have any account at the moment

 

[anushkumar]

hmm.. did you try rebuild RMP?
rpm --rebuilddb

Does any other scripts under /scripts work? Also, whats the OS?

do a cat /etc/redhat-release

i use cAos 2.0 x86_64. yes i test

#rm -Rf /var/lib/rpms/__*
#rpm --rebuilddb -v -v

and the problem continued
