I wrote the code and I do not know why it is doing what you observe. So I'm guessing not many other people know either. I do know that RedHat has fcntl() locking bugs that SQLite has to go to considerable trouble to work around. Perhaps the same bugs exit in Fedora and the work-around code isn't working quite right. Just a guess.... -- D. Richard Hipp <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
