OK, For the record: after killing Archiva (btw, if you have a better alternative than killing it, I'd be delighted to know about it. I have to use the exactly same approach to manage continuum...), go to $ARCHIVA_HOME/data/ recursively delete any .lck did the trick.
$ rm -i `find data/ -name "*.lck"` Might not be the cleanest way, though :/ Cheers. > -----Message d'origine----- > De : MATHUS Baptiste [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Envoyé : lundi 7 avril 2008 15:34 > À : archiva-users@maven.apache.org > Objet : RE: Admin account locked > > Hi, > > I'm stuck once more with this problem.
