This says one of the Amanda database files (or a directory down to
it) is locked up, i.e. wrong ownership. Look for a directory named
"curinfo" in your amanda.conf directory (or whatever you set "infofile"
to in amanda.conf). That, and everything under it, must be owned by
the Amanda user and writable.

I think this is fixed in 2.4.2.
