  Text:         Can't create lock file in /ISAM directory
 
  Severity:     Fatal
 
  Explanation:  For some reason your system is unable to create a lock
                file in the /ISAM directory.  One reason for this could
                be that in its previous run your program terminated
                abnormally (perhaps due to a power failure) leaving
                some files locked.
 
  Resolution:   You will have to manually remove all of the files that
                are still locked from the /ISAM directory before you
                can successfully run your program.
