The os_unix.c backend to SQLite makes no attempt to match lock/unlock calls, because posix does not requires such. If you are running on an operating system that does require matching lock/unlock calls, you will probably need to modify the os_unix.c layer in order for it to work properly on your system. > > thanks > murthy > > Please do not print this email unless it is absolutely necessary.
