Eclipse .jazzlock save could not be completed

Question

Eclipse loaded fine and was able to make any changes I could, but suddenly When I try to make change and save a file I get the following error:

Save could not be completed. try file > Save as... if the problem persists

Reason:
Unable to lock file c:\workspace\ws\.jazz5\.jazzlock

Answer 1

Delete the >jazzlock file in from your home workspace folder and restart your eclipse. It worked for me!

Answer 2

I've run into this when Eclipse hasn't closed cleanly. It can leave a process still running. Close all instances of Eclipse then look for extra's still running in Task Manager/Processes and stop them.

Answer 3

Change the "Load repository" folder under build definitions and re do the build. Deleting the .jazzlock file and shutting the eclipse to do the build, would work only when things are done "headless"ly.

Thanks.
