--------------------------------

             Summary: Index lockfiles left behind
                 Key: LUCY-265
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCY-265
             Project: Lucy
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Store
            Reporter: Tim Wilkens
            Priority: Minor


If the disk on a machine has filled and Lucy attempts to write a lockfile using `Json_spew_json` the write will fail and leave the temporary PID lockfile behind. This can cause the process which wrote the lockfile or a future process with the same PID to be locked out.

My proposed change will move temporary lockfile creation from `Json_spew_json` into `LFLock_Request_IMP` and also attempt to delete the lockfile regardless of whether or not the lockfile was written successfully.
