Zope locks the file to prevent concurrent use of the storage (which is not supported and would corrupt the storage). Thus, while a process accessing a storage is running, another process is prevented from opening it. When a process finished, the operating system would automatically release the lock (when the process has not done it itself). >Altough the error doesn't have any effect on the website I'm running... >Kinda strange.. Looks like there was a running Zope process -- the lock of which prevented the start of a new one -- as it should be... -- Dieter _______________________________________________ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
