Anyone had that happen? "/ads/writebanner.mv: Line 93: MvLOCKFILE: Runtime Error: Error creating lockfile 'banners/zoneview.dbf.lck': Timed out waiting for lock" It's not really much if a timeout issue if it pops up the second you click on the topic, right? Or is it more a sign of a connectivity issue on my end? Dan |

Yeah, it happens from time to time. It's a symptom of a race condition in the code. |

"It's a symptom of a race condition in the code." Lol. Racial profiling? :) Dan PS. Yesterday was my first time ever. |

Not that sort of race. Race as in running a race. link |

Isn't this the famous "Lockfile" error, been going on for ages ….. |

There was a "lockfile" error way back when, when you posted something*, but not when you simply opened a topic. At least that's never been my case. Dan * And you would end up with duplicate comments if you weren't careful. |

Got it for the 1st time today. Only on 1 post and it stopped after 3 or 4 attempts. |
ChrisBrantley | 05 Nov 2017 1:57 p.m. PST |
Started for me today…happening fairly frequently…every 4-5 clicks. |
Ed Mohrmann | 05 Nov 2017 2:13 p.m. PST |
Had it earlier today (about 6 AM EST) several times. Seems to have abated |

It's a symptom of a race condition in the code. No, it means heavy traffic. Isn't this the famous "Lockfile" error, been going on for ages ….. Different database. |

I had a sighting today early evening here on the western USA (PST)…. reloaded the URl address and it went away. Maybe the "bug" is writing its own text for a TMP article post soon. Would be interesting if the "bug" was bugged. |

"Maybe the "bug" is writing its own text for a TMP article post soon." This would imply an AI has somehow evolved out of the TMP bugs. :) Dan |
