After months of using Webinator flawlessly, I'm getting this error message.
"An older version of Texis is accessing the database
Could not open locking mechanism"
I don't understand what is happening.

Try removing the file "SYSLOCKS" from the database directory.
Make sure you don't mix and match versions of webinator and gw on a
given database.

I deleted the .master subdirectory
and I'm getting
/usr/home/shotgunr/usr/local/etc/httpd/htdocs/webinator/.master/SYSOBJECTS.t
bl: No such file or directory
as an error message.
Do I have to reinstall webinator?

You must have deleted more than just the .master directory. If there is no
SYSOBJECTS.tbl, you will have to re-install.

It would appear that you are running out of memory. Most likely your
web server has lowered the amount of memory available (ulimit) to your
webinator cgi program. You'll have to increase the memory ulimit
in your web server's configuration.

I'm told 8 Meg is available, and 12 Meg should be available soon. Is
Webinator pushing the 8 Meg limit?

No. Webinator should be using well under 8 megs. Is that figure the
total system available memory perhaps? Some web servers are configured
to give very little memory to cgi programs regardless of system memory.
