This probably means that gnatsd crashes while processing your changes. Have 
you made any changes to the database config files (categories etc.) lately? 
gnatsd 3.x does not handle syntax errors there gracefully and may leave 
stale lock files behind when it dies. You should probably have a look at 
your config.
