I put Lock in IndexReader.indexExists function, and testes for a few days
It worked fine. I never had that mistery problem.

How can put the patch in a JIRA issue?

Thanks,

Somebody (ah, Andy) already mentioned that you may be getting unlucky and
calling that IndexReader.indexExists method right when the 'segments' file
is being renamed.  It looks like there is no lock in that method, but it
looks like we may have to add it.

Take a look at the IndexReader.open(....) method to see how the Lock class
is used.  Add it to IndexReader.indexExists method(s) and see if you still
get the error.  If you don't, please put the patch with your changes in a
new JIRA issues, so we can fix the problem.

Thanks,
Otis

I am a little bit confused here.
Since I didn't change the lock directory or disable locking and it is on
the
single server sharing same fs, does it mean I am not supposed to get the
error?
But I did get the error. What should I do?
