I have been using 1.3 RC1 without any problem. But... since updating to the cvs version, I'm getting a lot of apparently random IOException related to locking:
java.io.IOException: Index locked for write: Lock@/tmp/lucene-5b228139f8fe55f7c74441a7d59f8f89-write.lock
at org.apache.lucene.index.IndexWriter.<init>(IndexWriter.java:173)
at org.apache.lucene.index.IndexWriter.<init>(IndexWriter.java:150)
I don't know if you've already resolved this problem, but if you haven't, it may be related to the change in lock file implementations. Since the lock file is now stored in a different place than the index, it might be possible to remove an index directory, yet still have a lock file for it. Could that be what's happening here?
Also, you asked if it was possible to disable locking, and the answer is yes. Check out FSDirectory.java for details.
