Could not lock /var/lock/opkg.lock

Installing and Using OpenWrt
1

Hi,

Some advice please, just configured my new Openwrt One and after upgrading some packages in LUCI I get this:

  • opkg_conf_load: Could not lock /var/lock/opkg.lock: Resource temporarily unavailable.

The opkg remove command failed with code 255.

Anyone knows on how to repair this?

opkg upgrade from terminal doesnt help

Thanks in advance
Chris

Reset will solve it.

Thanks, so a factory reset is the only thing that will help?
