SCO 5.0.6. As root, I try to access Software Manager and I get an error message that it is already running. I tried to access software manager from the scoadmin menu, by typing "scoadmin software", and by typing "custom". I get the same error. I verified that scoadmin and/or custom is not already running on the system. I noticed that the /opt/K/SCO/ega/5.2.2Ga/.softmgmt/shared.db file is corrupted and this may be the cause of my problem. Any ideas on how to fix the corrupted shared.db file?
 
We copied the shared.db file from another host that has the same SCO software and patches installed and everything works fine.
