Does anything in the error message pertain to your setup? IOW, do you
have other processes running that may be locking the file (antivirus
is notorious for this)? Is it a local filesystem, or mounted from the
network? If local, what filesystem are you using? If it's on the
network, have you taken the step suggested by the message?
