There appears to be a process of yours still running attached to that file. > It doesn't happen every time, but for some hours now I've been unable > to commit anything. It seems that there are two processes hanging around attached to that file. I can only guess that some networking glitches between your client and the server has left some processes unclosed. They should timeout eventually but the timeout is long to accomodate people working on slow connections. > This appears to be a server issue. Please have a look at it. I have killed off the two processes I saw of yours that were attached to that file. That should release the locks for it and you should be able to get a new semaphore lock now. But there is nothing that would prevent this from happening again. If it happened once then it could happen again. Please let us know if it does and we can deal with it again then. Bob
