Hello.
=20
I have a problem when reindexing some documents after an index has been
created, i get an error, the error is the following.
caught a class java.io.IOException

with message: Lock obtain timed out:
Lock@C:\DOCUME~1\..........lucene-0b877c2d5472a608d6ec3ee6174018de-write
.lock
<mailto:Lock@C:\DOCUME~1\..........lucene-0b877c2d5472a608d6ec3ee6174018
de-write.lock>=20

This is how i do it.
1.st make the index (_indexDir is the location of the index)
writer =3D new IndexWriter(_indexDir, new StandardAnalyzer(), true);

..... do the indexing here

writer.optimize();

writer.close();

this works fine

2. this is where i get the error (reindex an existing document)
writer =3D new IndexWriter(_indexDir, new StandardAnalyzer(), false);
Directory directory;

IndexReader reader;

// if the file is in the index already, remove it

directory =3D FSDirectory.getDirectory(_indexDir, false);

reader =3D IndexReader.open(directory);

try {

Term term =3D new Term("deleteid", deleteID.toLowerCase());=20

if (reader.docFreq(term) >=3D 1) {

deletedItems =3D reader.delete(term);// ----- this is where the error
occurs, i get the locking error

}

} catch (Exception e) {

System.out.println(" caught a " + e.getClass() + "\n with message: " +
e.getMessage());}

finally {

reader.close();

directory.close();

}

continue with reindexing the new document

......

I hope anyone can help me with this problem.
