I am getting the error "Unable to open file in exclusive mode".

Applies to
  • Connexion client 
Answer

This can be corrected by using the Compact/Repair tool.

  1. Go to File > Local File Manager.
  2. Select the file path of the file that is causing the error.
  3. Click Compact/Repair.

After the tool completes running, check to see if the error appears again.  If it does, the file may have become corrupt and must be replaced.

Additional information

There is additional information available about how to create a new local file.
