how to remove ANSYS Workbench lock when running in command line (batch)
how to remove ANSYS Workbench lock when running in command line (batch)
(OP)
Hi,
I am trying to run a project in ANSYS workbench 18.1 in command line (batch), and I've got an error regarding ANSYS LOCK. It says that the project is locked.
I tried to add an environment variable in windows (ANSYS_LOCK OFF), but it did not work out. So I would like to know where is the ansys configuration file where I can edit/remove the ANSYS LOCK. Or if there is another way of solving this problem, it is 100% welcome.
Any help appreciated,
Thanks,
Best regards,
AndradeSilva

Thanks for your reply.
I've already tried to delete the .lock file. The problem is that when I try to run a wb project in command line, the lock file appears again and blocks the project run. Do you know how to prevent the .lock file from appearing?
Thanks,
