Error: too many trys to get lock

[Daniel Kuecker]

I'm getting this error on our production RB server.  We are using P4 with LDAP authentication.

SCMError: [P4#run] Errors during command execution( "p4 login" )

 [Error]: "Fatal client error; disconnecting!\nOperation 'client-SetPassword' failed.\nToo many trys to get lock /opt/apps/reviewboard/rbinstall/review-board.xxxxxxxx.com/data/.p4tickets.lck."

Has anyone seen a similar error?

Hi Daniel,

I haven't, but the first thing I'd check is whether that directory and its contents are writable by the web server.

There's going to be a new Review Board release out by the end of the week that, amongst other things, makes some large improvements (and has better error handling) for Perforce authentication. I don't know if it would help much in this situation, but possibly.

Thanks for the quick reply Christian!  I see apache did not have write access to the data folder.  I enabled it and will watch for future errors. 

Thanks!
