Rpm Database Damaged

I cannot install any of the rpm in my Knoppix distro installed into my Hard Disk with Knx-hdinstall.
I tried KPackage & even command line:

Code:

---

>rpm -ivh *.rpm

---

The Rpm database is probably corrupt can any one help me out to fix this problem,i tried out every article i could google to repair my rpm database including

Code:

---

rpm --rebuilt etc.

---

Try with rpm --rebuilddb.

Though for installing packages in Knoppix, it's easier to go with apt-get:
