It looks like two processes started to work on the same contig (normally a first set of locks blocks this possibility – but rarely they get past that step). Then when it got to a part where an analysis is performed one properly failed when it realized that the other had the lock. In any case, it looks like it just retried and finished the contig in question. So the snippet seems to indicate expected behavior. Do you see the contig in question as being finished and having an output GFF3?</div><div><br></div><div>--Carson</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><span id="OLK_SRC_BODY_SECTION"><div style="font-family:Calibri; font-size:11pt; text-align:left; color:black; BORDER-BOTTOM: medium none; BORDER-LEFT: medium none; PADDING-BOTTOM: 0in; PADDING-LEFT: 0in; PADDING-RIGHT: 0in; BORDER-TOP: #b5c4df 1pt solid; BORDER-RIGHT: medium none; PADDING-TOP: 3pt"><span style="font-weight:bold">From: </span> Hung-Wei Hsu <<a href="mailto:ares711122@gmail.com">ares711122@gmail.com</a>><br><span style="font-weight:bold">Date: </span> Thursday, 14 March, 2013 11:13 PM<br><span style="font-weight:bold">To: </span> Carson Holt <<a href="mailto:carsonhh@gmail.com">carsonhh@gmail.com</a>><br><span style="font-weight:bold">Cc: </span> <<a href="mailto:maker-devel@yandell-lab.org">maker-devel@yandell-lab.org</a>><br><span style="font-weight:bold">Subject: </span> Re: [maker-devel] ERROR: Could not obtain lock to format database<br></div><div><br></div><div dir="ltr">You may find the error messages in the run log as attached.<div>Thanks a lot in advance.</div><div><br></div><div>Best regards,</div><div style="">Hung-Wei</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">
