[Zope] problem locking up the db

[Dennis Allison]

It should not be a problem.  Simply stop the running Zope (./stop)  and
then restart.  You apparently had the server running when you attempted to
start it.  You may need to do the kill by hand if the Z2.pid file is not 
correct.

I have had this problem before, then I found out there was another processing I did not kill still running the server. this time,  I made sure I had no other processes that are running the server or making use of any files in Zope. Please help!
