Hi Steve,

You can use 'ldmadmin clean' which should clean up the lock file for you.  
('ldmadmin -h'
or 'ldmadmin -usage' will show you the options possible for ldmadmin.)

Depending on how this happened, it's possible that when you restart the ldm 
your queue
might be corrupted.  If this is the case, stop the ldm, do 'ldmadmin delqueue', 
then
'ldmadmin mkqueue', then restart the ldm.  It should be able to catch up by 
re-requesting
the past hour's data from your upstream feed.
