[roadscape]

This is a temporary and recoverable steemd error which should be retried automatically:

RPCError: Unable to acquire database lock

I am facing the same issue in steem testnet for my local machine any solution? OR any cases/circumstances where this error occurs?

@yashbhavsar007 Just wrap your Api call in function and call it again on error.

function steem(){
    steem.api.SomeApiCall(..., function(err, result) {
        if(err){ 
            steem() 
        }
    }
}
