[GNC] Cannot Obtain Lock error?

[Jack Slater]

Thanks for this!

Some of what you're detailing in tech terms is above my pay grade (mysql
etc). But I AM savvy enough to know that when I post "latest version", that
I have checked the versioning number to confirm that my latest update is in
fact the latest update.

So I support your suggestion that this has happened since the "latest"
update.  I'd be glad to provide anything more if needed but this is a long
running bug it seems.
