LOCK creates new file version

• Type: Bug

When locking and unlocking a file in the document library, it will automatically generate a new file version, even if there was no change to the file at all. This is especially unfavourable when using WebDAV, as it will lock open files.

I've checked out, cancelelled checkout in 6.2.0m4 and version does not change. Can you confirm this is fixed in 6.2.0m4?
Thanks

This is not what happens:

LOCK seems to check out the file but UNLOCK doesn't cancel the checkout, it will check in the file again and create a new version.

I could test it on my local copy of M3 later.

Results of my test with M3:

WebDAV: does not create new versions
Checkout + Abort checkout: does not create new versions
Checkout + Checkin: does not create new versions

As this is also an issue in 6.1 EE, a backport of the fixes would be good.

Addition:
Checkout + Checkin throws an error sometimes: "Duplicate entry '10177-10193-1365486957000-10010-11227-2-0' for key 'IX_8F32DEC9'"

And have you go checkin-checkout errors in 6.2.0m4?

[David Kubitza]

No, just M3

This issue is fixed. I suggest to close it
