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Error Value: ("'\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x02'", 'No longer active')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