unable to get file lock, will retry in OBIEE 11G

I ran into this error the first time I restarted Weblogic on one of my installs…

Error :

<Jan 5, 2012 7:00:36 PM IST> <Info> <Management> <BEA-141281> <unable to get file lock, will retry …>

Solution :

Navigate to the path : <OBIEE HOME>/C:\Middleware\user_projects\domains\bifoundation_domain\servers\AdminServer\tmp

and delete the “AdminServer.lok” file .

If required ,do the same for “bi_server1″ file and Start the services again.. The services should be able to start .
