MKDIR command locks somtines the subdir

Simon,

I made some tests and indeed in simple constructs, MKDIR works as it should work. I played around with several scenarios and it seems that only happens if the entire scenario is complex enough, it keeps on locking the subdir, although no process/file lock needs it anymore. In my case I detach files from a document and attach them to another. But this is only a subprocess. But the other processes have nothing to do wit hthis subdir, files or attachments.

I assume that an internal error in Notes is captured internally and does a kind of reset or removes things from the stack ... so that Notes simply "forgets" to remove the subdir lock. Created for a test the subdir in the database script (queryopen) and tried to deleted it there also (Queryclose). If I just enter the db and leave it, it works as expected. But if I enter one of those docs with the attachments and detach only 1 file ... locked.

As its probably something internal inside Notes I can't invest any more time into it. I instead will work now on a workaround. Keep you guys informed.

Joe
