The lockfile code is really odd. We put tonnes of work into trying to find out why it wouldn't delete the lock file but could never replicate it.<br>
<br>
The lockfile code should only lock some one out in the last edit was over an hour ago, and the lockfile will be ignored if you are the editor who created it.<br>
<br>
If you receive the lockfile message you should also be emailed by XOT when the lockfile is deleted by the editor closing their session down.<br>
