I am working on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.

I have tried installing IP messenger on this and it showing error message like this,

FileName:ipmsg.c
Function:create_lock_file
Line:157
Can not setup lock file:/tmp/g2ipmsg.lock errno : -11 (Resource temporarily unavailable)

I tried various methods to resolve this.

/tmp is writable
g2ipmsg.lock file exists
issued permission 777 to g2ipmsg.lock
At start there is two process running with name ipmsg in system monitor, so i removed all ipmsg processes and restarted the application again, no success
Created file g2ipmsg.lock manually and set permission 777

none of this helped.

Any help will be greatly appreciated
