Fix Version: 1.0
Version: (was: 1.0)
> repository lock file not removed without a clean shutdown
> ---------------------------------------------------------

> Key: JCR-233
> URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-233
> Project: Jackrabbit
> Type: Bug
> Components: core
> Reporter: fabrizio giustina
> Fix For: 1.0
> Attachments: replock.293087.diff
>
> actually when a repository is loaded a ".lock" file is created. This file is
> removed only after a clean shutdown but, if a jackrabbit instance has been
> killed, you have to manually delete the file in order to load the repository
> again, also if there was no live instance of jackrabbit that was using it.
> The problem comes from the fact that the simple presence of the .lock file is
> used to indicate a live instance.
> I suggest replacing this behavior using this method (used for example by
> eclipse when opening workspaces):
> - when an instance is loaded create a ".lock" file and open it with exclusive
> access
> - when a new instance is started try to delete an eventual .lock file. Only
> if the file can't be deleted because in use assume that another jackrabbit
> instance is running.
