What kind of file is this and did you manually lock it or did you use and editor that locks automatically on the file?

[InservNologin]

Its with any type of file. The file is locked manually

[juliusknorr]

Nextcloud and app versions would also be interesting. I cannot reproduce that with the latest release.

May #73 be related?

Files might get locked by accessing them via Apps over WebDAV and rendering these workflows unusable.

This becomes a problem when editing files via WebDAV, as seen here: https://github.com/allotropia/nextcloud_files_libreoffice_edit/issues/16

Since the problem is part of the files_lock mechanic, this needs to be addressed here.
