db_upgrade(1).
I've seen the same symptoms when I had two versions of libdb on my
system, and two Perl modules had been linked against distinct major
versions. libdb doesn't use symbol versioning, private symbols or any
other such tricks, so in that situation it can easily end up with one
major version calling code from another...
(`File exists' is merely a harmless errno value spat out by very
confused error-handling code that's running when it shouldn't.)
