LockService problem

[saruqui]

I have a code like this:

,
public void setProperties(NodeRef node, Map<QName, Serializable> props){
   lockService.unlock(node);
   nodeService.setProperties(node,props);
   lockService.lock(node);
}
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

,
lockservice.lock(node) throws an exception because the node is locked and I can't figure out what the problem is.

In a second try, I embedded into this code in a transaction and I get the same result.

Can anybody help me? Any idea?

Regards,

You need to give details of the exception.    

However the obvious thing that may be wrong with your code is calling unlock for a node that is either not locked or is locked by somebody else, you can't blindly assume that you can unlock a node.    A better approach may be to suspend locks while your code is running.
