[flexbackup-help] Help please:

Hi all:

I have been using flexbackup 0.9.8 for more than one year with a
Seagate Travan NS20 drive, with complete success.

Now I am using it on a different system, SuSE 8.0, using disk files
as backup devices.  I have split the backup into 5 files, to avoid
the 2Gb filesize limit that I ran into.  However, I don't seem to be
able to restore from the backup files.  I have, today, upgraded to
Flexbackup V1.0.2, yet I get the same error result.

My data files are in /backup/full3 with subdirectories under that for
log and state files.

My config file is /backup/full3.config

(the `3' is one of 5 sets)

The restore command that I am using, as root, is:
cd /tmp/x (which already exists)

flexbackup -extract /backup/full3/root.0.20030217.afio.gz -c
/backup/full3.conf

and the error that I get is 
 Can't tie DB /backup/full3/state/index: Resource temporarily unavailable

both with the older version and with the current version.

Obviously I am doing something wrong, but what?

Any help would be appreciated, thanks
