Avoid creation of more than one jackrabbit instance with the same configuration
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: JCR-213
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-213
Project: Jackrabbit
Type: Improvement
Components: core
Reporter: Edgar Poce
Assigned to: Edgar Poce
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 1.0
based on the mailing list archive, it seems new users often run more than one
jackrabbit instance with the same configuration. I propose to lock the
repository by creating an empty file called ".lock" at the repository home on
startup and remove it on shutdown.
If the lock file is found on jackrabbit startup the following message will be
logged:
"The repository home at " + home.getAbsolutePath() + " appears to be in use. If
you are sure it's not in use please delete the file at " +
lock.getAbsolutePath() + ". Probably the repository was not shutdown properly."
