Use the Control Panel -> Versions UI to enter and abort the version. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Uwe Schuerkamp" <uwe@schuerkamp.de> To: <zope@zope.org> Sent: Thursday, April 25, 2002 11:17 AM Subject: [Zope] Help with Version LockError, please

Hi,

I have a problem with a locked version in Zope 2.5.1b2. I played around adding a version object to a subfolder, then later deleting it. Now, when I try to add new items to the root folder I get the following error: Error Type: VersionLockError

Error Value: ("'\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x02'", 'No longer active')

I found a suggestion at zope-forum instructing to undo the "delete version" operation, re-enter that version (I don't even remember ever leaving it ;-) and then to proceed from there.

However, the operation is no longer in the Undo log of the folder in question.

Is there any way to "unlock" the root folder short of re-installing Zope from scratch?

Thanks in advance for any help,

Uwe

PS: Yeah, I feel stoopid ;-)
