            Description

            The lock file should either be created as /tmp/[domain]-civimail.lock (or something similar) or in the Drupal /files directory (for Drupal installs). I'm not sure where to put it for Joomla.

            The current location fails on my Drupal installations.

                1. I moved the directory to use the uploadDir where we store temp files (files/civicrm/upload)

                2. however most of the times that directory has been created by apache and is probably permissioned So, i also updated the code so you can pass a directory as an argument and that directory is used for the lock directory. Note that u'll need register_argc_argv turned on for this to work

                this issue is obsolete now as we use database lock now.
