9422.0. "joind locked by another process" by BARNA::DSMAIL () Tue Apr 08 1997 06:48

    
    		Hi people:
    
    		I have a problem with joind.
    		Operating System has been updated from 3.2c to 4.0b.
    		Joind isn't started giving the following message in the
                daemon.log and /var/join/log:
    
    
    unix joind[14486]: DB is not writable: locked by another process
    
    unix joind[14486]: JOIN server shutdown on Tuesday April 08 10:54
    
    unix inetd[487]: /usr/sbin/joind: exit status 0xfffff300
    
    Daemon is not started.The /etc/rc.config line bootps is the following:
    
    bootps dgram udp wait root /usr/sbin/joind joind
    
    Directory /var/join :
    
    All dbs permisions 644 root system
    
    Exists the file rwlock with 0 bytes
    
    /etc/rc.config:
    
    JOIND="yes"
    
    Any idea?
    
    Thanks in advanced

    You should remove : /var/join/rwlock and/or start joind manualy
    	with : joind -d4 -f to see what's happens..

    		Hi Manuel
