[SOLVED] File is locked by another fetcher

CollieJim · 01-04-2012, 09:20 PM

I have /usr/portage/distfiles on a network drive.

Code:

emerge -avDuf world

was working away nicely but I had to shut down for the night. When I restarted:

Code:

emerge --resume

it hung with

Code:

* waiting for lock on /mnt/distfiles/.virtuoso-opensource-6.1.3.tar.gz.portage_lockfile

If I try

Code:

emerge -f virtuoso-server
Calculating dependencies... donw!

>>> Fetching (1 of 1) /dev-db/virtuoso-opensource-6.1.3-r2
>>> File 'virtuoso-opensource-6.1.3.tar.gz' is already locked by another fetcher.  Continuing...

If there is a lockfile somewhere, I cannot find it.
What's happening here?

Edit: What's happening is I was not looking in the right place. I was relying on locate to show me all 'lockfile', but it was missing those on the network drive.

So is all good now? Or are you still having issues? I ask because I noticed that you have marked your thread as solved. Otherwise, replying to take off the zero reply list.

Cheers,

All is well. Do take it off the list.
