Description Mathew Kanner 2002-11-07 07:30:05 UTC 
FlexLM does not work with linux_base-7 but does with linux_base-6.
flock is the apparent cause.  Willem van Engen reported it on
freebsd-emulation on 12/10/2001, and Andrew Gallatin proposes the
solution here.

flexlm gives the vague error message:
cannot establish lock - exiting (file: "", errno: 22)

This allows me to run matlab

How-To-Repeat: 	Run flexlm with linux-base-7

Is this still a problem with a recent FreeBSD?

- feedback timeout: 9 months 
- rdivacky thinks this does not make much sense, the pid is nowhere used (the 
VOP_ADVLOCK sets that only - posix thing) and len is set to 0 anyway
