[approved] Lock file problems

2004-02-23 02:25:56

I've prayed and prayed but I still  keep getting this lock file error:

-bash-2.05b$ make readmail
./bin/read-mail -verbose -force
chdir /home/ub/archives
./bin/filter-spool -verbose
mkdir -p /home/ub/archives/log /home/ub/archives/mbox
/home/ub/archives/html
/usr/local/bin/lockfile -r5 -l3600 .newmail.lock 2>/dev/null
/usr/local/bin/lockfile -l3600 -ml
lockfile: Try praying, giving up on "/var/mail/ub.lock"
system /usr/local/bin/lockfile -l3600 -ml failed: 17664

I'm using qmail but I'm only trying to archive an older mbox style file
for now.  How do I get past this error?

Thanks,
