Otis,
no idea how I run into it. That's why to create a unit is a bit
problematic.
In Lucene code it looks like that reader tries every 1 sec to read the
index 10 times. After that it says - it just can not be that it's locked
so long, I'd query anyway. That's why 10sec delay.

Bernard,
it's not a problem to unlock the index. The problem is to know that it's
the time to intercept and do it manually (i.e. it's not a normal lock came
from reader/writer proceses but just a fantom that got lost).
hi,
the IndexReader class provides some public static methodes to check if
an index is locked. If this is the case, there is also a method to
unlock an existing index. You could do something like:
Directory dir = FSDirectory.getDirectory(indexDir, false);
if (IndexReader.isLocked(dir)) {
IndexReader.unlock(dir);
}
dir.close();
You also should catch the possible IOException in case of an error or
the index can't be unlocked.
fun with it
