[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (HSEARCH-284) Lucene locks left around in application restart/crash

Lucene locks left around in application restart/crash ----------------------------------------------------- Key: HSEARCH-284 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HSEARCH-284 Project: Hibernate Search Issue Type: Improvement Affects Versions: 3.0.1.GA Reporter: sam doyle In a case where an application restarts, crashes, gets killed etc. if there is an existing Lucene lock it will not be removed on the application restart. As a result of this the application itself can be severely impacted. After encountering this particular issue and needing to manually remove the lock to resolve the problem I did some searching. It appears this situation is somewhat common and the use of NativeFSLockFactory was the suggested solution. Since I don't see where this particular option is configurable with Hibernate Search I have opened this request.
