When I run sup-sync, I get the following message:
Error: the index is locked by another process! User '' on
host '' is running with pid.
The process was alive as of at least 54 minutes ago.
Should I ask that process to kill itself (y/n)? n
Sorry, couldn't unlock the index.
Couldn't find the process running ps -aux. Any help gratefully appreciated.
Again I am a non-programmer so go easy.

This usually means that sup was killed unnaturally and left the lockfile
laying around. Sup is reluctant to start multiple instances of itself. In
this case, since you've confirmed that another sup instance isn't running,
I believe you can safely answer "y" to this question and the one that will
follow it to start sup.
