324637 - Lock files left in place keep me from starting firefox

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 151188

(Thunderbird :: General, defect)

Description

[Robert K. Nelson]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050920 Firefox/1.0.7 SUSE/1.0.7-0.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050920 Firefox/1.0.7 SUSE/1.0.7-0.1

I am running from a remote X-Server and the following messages appear on the terminal where I start thunderbird:

Unhandled Exception: System.IO.IOException: Lock violation on path /home/asc/rkn/.beagle/Log/2006-01-25-08-57-51-IndexWebContent
in [0x000a5] (at /usr/src/packages/BUILD/mono-1.1.8.3/mcs/class/corlib/System.IO/FileStream.cs:920) System.IO.FileStream:FlushBuffer ()

in <0x00038> Beagle.Util.Logger:Debug (System.String message, System.Object[] args)
in <0x000e4> IndexWebContentTool:Main (System.String[] args)

Subsequently, the firefox lock file is on place and I have to remove it by hand.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Start Thunderbird on a remote display
2.Click on a URL to view in firefox
3.Click on a different URL to view in firefox

Actual Results:  
Firefox is locked

Expected Results:  
Not locked

I would really like the "File Locked" window to allow me to ignore the lock.  Sometimes I really do know whats going on.

Duplicate of Core bug 151188?
