Re: Locking problems using CGIDEV2

Wow.. that is odd.  hopefully Mel is following this.  He
most likely has the best idea.

I thought at first it was a problem with IFS files being
locked (templates, etc.).  I've found that in recent
releases if you're doing a save and it's working with a
directory that your CGI program wants to use a template,
it, it completley fails.. can't even open for read only.
