580.0. "busbmit problem on gold" by SMURF::FILTER (Automatic Posting Software - mail to flume::puck) Mon Feb 21 1994 19:35

Subj: 	busbmit problem on gold
I get the following when submitting to gold: 	

> Lock file is temporarily unavailable.  Waiting.................

Since I had done a kill of a previous try, I thought I could have left
the files in the hold state.  But bsubmit.hold doesn't have my files in it.
I ran busbmit with '-debug -verbose' and found out that it is waiting
on lock_hold:

>>> DEBUG INFO in lockhold:
>>>      file, lock_hold, already locked.

I don't know if I had it locked in my previous attempt, but how do I
clear the lock?  I checked the lock_hold file, which is a directory(?)
with read/write (no execute either!) for owner only.

Thanks,

for some reason, the gold bsubmit.hold lock file (logs/lock_hold) did not
get cleaned up from an operation at about 5:20 -- I'll remove it now and 
your submit will pick up if you haven't killed it...
