Hi Piers,

Alternatively, you could use flock to do the same.

Something like this, http://www.elevatedcode.com/2013/05/07/flock-for-cron-jobs.html

Hi Manoj,

I was using the PHP equivalent however I probably did use it correctly (because there is always PHP jobs running so I guess it was locking itself out).

I really appreciate your helpful answer.

Thanks
Piers
