ERROR: Could not delete lock file for "mwstore://local-backend/local-public/archive".

I get this message for about a tenth of files uploaded, at various upload "percentage" stages.

The files themselves are uploaded all right.

But I wonder whether there will be any consequences of the error. Can anyone let me know? Thanks.

Thanks. I'll have a look at that. I have also put this on on the Support Desk at Topic:Vtttk3n0syhmo99l in case it's a more general problem.

Thank you for the almost-immediate response! I have made the same change as suggested by the user there (i.e. sequential uploads only) and for the first time had no errors when uploading my next batch of 10 files.

Would it be possible to add this to the extension as an option? Otherwise I'll lose it on each upgrade... Thanks.

I uploaded a further batch of 20. Four of them didn't go as far as "OK"... they were 99, 93, 99, 98%... but the files, as before, were uploaded OK.

So maybe some underlying problem is causing both problems (i.e. the original lock error, and the non-OK text).

On the latest batch, of 18, only one didn't say "OK" (the 8th one went to 97%).

For some reason, I'm happier with this than I was with the database lock error, though I suspect it's the same problem!

I would be happy to turn on any debugging mode you suggest to help you get to the bottom of it.
