Tobias Strasser commented on JCR-213: ------------------------------------- additionally to deleting the file explicitely, i woud also mark it for 'auto-deletion' by calling File.deleteOnExit() > 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 > Assignee: Edgar Poce > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 1.0 > Attachments: 05-09-09-lockRepoHome.patch > > 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." -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
