Trying to Lock Files

Denise Bowker

If I understand the " lock='t' " option within workflow, the files associated with a job are locked with the owner of the new task when the task is transitioned. However my workflows are getting stuck with the task status of "Trying to Lock Files".

If the files are not locked to begin with, they get locked just fine, but if the files are already locked, they don't get relocked with the new owner.

Everyone associated with my tests are MASTERS, so I'm assuming it's not a role issue.
