Description Konrad Kolosowski CLA 2002-08-09 15:31:02 EDT 
In the infocenter scenario, when Eclipse is being started the .log file is 
being created.  If for some reason the launching of the Eclipse platform fails, 
the .lock file is left in the server temporary directory.  Subsequent attempts 
to run infocenter will fail due to .lock file being present.

The .lock serves as a protection against running more than one instance of 
Eclipse, but is not needed in the infocenter scenario, because each webapp has 
its own temporary location, and server takes care of initializing web app only 
once.
