database lock acquisition failure

[jdub2]

Hello, i am trying to run the game on my new laptop, Acer Aspire M5, and when i run the game, it crashes with the exception "database lock acquisition failure" i was told that i needed to delete a specific file to fix this, any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

PS the game works fine on my mac, and i have updated my graphics drivers (Intel)

Yes, you have to delete this file:

./StarMade/server-database/index/.lck

This should fix it.
(Or make sure the server has read/write permissions on the folder, as this may also be a cause for this, running as root once, and then again as 'user' would most likely deny the user from modification of the files)
