When creating multiple repository instances pointing to the same home, opening a second session will remove the .lock file --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: JCR-2057 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-2057 Project: Jackrabbit Content Repository Issue Type: Bug Components: jackrabbit-core Affects Versions: 1.5.3, core 1.4.7 Environment: Ubuntu Intrepid Reporter: Sébastien Launay The following test case can be used to reproduce the bug: Repository repo1 = new TransientRepository(repoConfig); Session session1_1 = repo1.login(...); Session session2_2 = repo1.login(...); Repository repo2 = new TransientRepository(repoConfig); // Will not fail (expected) Session session2_1 = repo2.login(...); // Will fail with javax.jcr.RepositoryException: The repository home /tmp/_repository appears to be already locked by the current process (expected) Session session2_2 = repo2.login(...); // Will work! Repository repo3 = new TransientRepository(repoConfig); // Will not fail either (expected) Session session3_1 = repo3.login(...); // Will fail with javax.jcr.RepositoryException: The repository home /tmp/_repository appears to be already locked by the current process (expected) Session session3_2 = repo3.login(...); // Will fail with javax.jcr.RepositoryException: Directory was previously created with a different LockFactory instance Open the first session in repo2 will fails but will also remove the .lock file, thus the second session will succeed and may corrupt the repository because there are multiple session opened from multiple repository. The same behaviour occurs for repo3, the .lock file is removed but it is a slightly different case as a new exception will be thrown while creating the Lucene index. This is a clearly a twisted case as repositories pointing to the same home must not be created simultaneously but i think that it must be more robust to prevent data corruption. I reproduce the bug on JR 1.4.7 and 1.5.3 but i think it affects at least all versions of JR < 1.5.3. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
