asterisk users - Jul 2007 - Voicemail .lock- files voicemail box not accessible

Hi All,

Strange issue, recently I started getting a lot of .lock files in the
voicemail /INBOX folder preventing proper access to voicemail.  I can
delete the .lock files and everything is normal.  After searching
around, I found some SIP lock file stuff but nothing specific to
voicemail.

Can someone point me in the right direction to resolve this?  I'm
runnning 1.2.9 on Debian Sarge.

Thanks.

JR

We had gotten quite a few complaints about this back in the 1.2.9 days, but I
haven't heard any in months.

Step 1 would be to upgrade.  You're 13 versions behind.

The only time I've ever seen this is if you are running out of disk 
space on the partition voicemail is stored on.  I imagine this could 
also happen if Asterisk crashed while someone was leaving voicemail.
