It is not about SQLite, it is about the Networking systems lying about whether a file is locked or not. No RDBMS can trust the network, but the client-server types do not care since they control the locking and do not depend on the OS / file status. SQLite however depends on it and as such cannot accurately (or timeously I should say) verify such status via a Network. On a local drive this is never a problem.

If you need Networking or User-control, please use a client-server type 
database.

There is one Client-Server implementation of SQLite (SQLightening I think) but it is neither free nor easy to convert to. You can write your own server too, but the best bet is using MySQL or PostGres in these cases.
