Hello,

I've been using an older version of Monitorix for a couple of years, but 
yesterday I decided to update to version 2.6.0.

I'm running Ubuntu Server 10.04.4, so I decided to completely remove the 
old version and install the new one using the IzzySoft repository.

Apparently all went well, and Monitorix is up and running. However, in 
the log file I see many errors complaining that Monitorix cannot lock 
some of the .rrd files. For example:

Wed Jan  9 13:23:00 2013 - ERROR: while updating 
/var/lib/monitorix/net.rrd: could not lock RRD
Wed Jan  9 13:23:00 2013 - ERROR: while updating 
/var/lib/monitorix/int.rrd: could not lock RRD
Wed Jan  9 13:24:00 2013 - ERROR: while updating 
/var/lib/monitorix/int.rrd: could not lock RRD
Wed Jan  9 13:27:00 2013 - ERROR: while updating 
/var/lib/monitorix/system.rrd: could not lock RRD
Wed Jan  9 13:27:00 2013 - ERROR: while updating 
/var/lib/monitorix/int.rrd: could not lock RRD
Wed Jan  9 13:28:00 2013 - ERROR: while updating 
/var/lib/monitorix/proc.rrd: could not lock RRD

I searched for this type of error, but all the references I found had to 
do with using the NFS filesystem, which I am not using.

I already tried stopping Monitorix, deleting the files, and starting 
Monitorix again. Monitorix detected that the files were missing, so it 
created the files again, but the errors continue. When I load the Web 
page, most of the graphs already display values (the ones that are empty 
may still need to be configured).

Is there anything that I can do to understand why Monitorix cannot lock 
these files? Or are these errors to be expected?

Thank you,
