Which filesystem? Which editor? From error returned to nginx it looks like your editor uses mandatory locking and that’s why nginx can’t open file. Versions prior to 0.8.36/0.7.66 will likely just hang in such situation waiting for file to be released. Note also that it’s not generally safe to edit files which are served at the same moment (this applies to all servers, not just nginx). Consider the following scenario: 1. You have a file with "A"s inside. User starts downloading a file. Server opens it, and sends first half of the file. 2. You edit the file and change all "A"s to "B"s. 3. Server sends last half of the file. 4. Oops. User ends up with totally incorrect data: with half of "A"s and half of "B"s inside. Recommended aproach is to edit copy, and then replace served file with atomic operation (via rename() system call, or via mv utility which calls it). Maxim D. ---

Just for record: I believe samba uses fcntl(F\_SETLEASE) on linux (and this is what causes EAGAIN). Maxim D.
