yes.

furthermore, *lockfile* is able to create the file
/commun/data/_tmp.idp448.lock
even when the script is called with 'qsub'

the lock file is later deleted with rm -f

only the call to sqlite3 prints an error message.

no, it's a random name  I've created.  This file is here to ensure that
only one process is accessing the sqlite3 database.

I'm the only one here playing with the cluster: so nobody can create the
file on open the sqlite database at the very same time.

all the nodes have been installed using 'yum install sqlite3' so I guess
there is nothing to configure.

Thank your  for your help.
