Another Chandler is already running off the same repository

  Chandler lost it's mind tonight.
 
  The first indication was when it loaded some default dataset, not my dataset.
 
  I expanded the backup and copied the files to the _repository_ directory.
  After several start attempts that resulted in errors, I would occasionally get
  the opportunity to try to start with various options like:
 
  - normal
  - delete my data and start fresh (who would chose this?)
  - delete indexes and re-index
  ... and so on.
 
  After trying a couple different ones of these, I started getting the error in
  the subject line. I rebooted, and I'm still getting the error message.
 
  The ._repository_.lock file gets created when I try to start Chandler and get
  the "another chandler" error message. When I click on the "OK" button (and
  it's not really OK, I want chandler to run with MY data, but that's another
  conversation) the ._repository_.lock get removed from the .default directory.
 
  So ... what file tells Chandler there's another Chandler running? And what do
  I do to correct this issue?

<http://n2.nabble.com/forum/Search.jtp?query=%22same+repository%22&sort=date&local=y&forum=1653123> should steer you in the right direction.

What's your operating system and version?
