Did you close your writer if an Exception occured?
I had a similiar problem, but it was fixed when i close the writer in the
finally block.
Below is my original code (which generate Mjava.io.Exception: Lock obtain
timed out when an Exception is thrown)
public static void index(File indexDir, List cList, boolean ow)
throws Exception{
IndexWriter writer = null;
try{
writer = new IndexWriter(indexDir, new MyAnalyzer(), overwrite);
// index documents
}
catch(Exception e){
writer = new IndexWriter(indexDir, new MyAnalyzer(), true);
try{
// index documents
}
catch(Exception ee){
throw ee;
}
}
writer.close(); // never reaches this statement if the catch block is
called.
}
// revised code to force a close on the IndexWriter
public static void index(File indexDir, List cList, boolean ow)
throws Exception{
IndexWriter writer = null;
try{
writer = new IndexWriter(indexDir, new MyAnalyzer(), overwrite);
// index documents
writer.close();
}
catch(Exception e){
writer = new IndexWriter(indexDir, new MyAnalyzer(), true);
try{
// index documents
}
catch(Exception ee){
throw ee;
}
finally{
writer.close();
}
}
}

Otis,
I only put the unlock call in because I had the error
in the first place. Removing it, the IOException still
occurs, when trying to instantiate the IndexWriter.
Thanks,
Gabe
