I know this is an old post, but the problem is still current (version 8.2 CE), and I was unable to find any help (other than the workaround to delete the .lock files, but this only solves it for a few minutes, possibly even less).

I had exactly the same problem, it basically rendered Spoon useless. In my case, the culprit was the antivirus program. I noticed it only because I installed the AV after I used Spoon for some time. I just removed the AV (and installed another one) - no more problems.

It seems that your repository is having some issue in connecting.

Try checking the repo. connection and also check for the permission of accessing the repo.

I faced a similar issue and was able to resolve it by deleting the lock file under

D:\Pentaho-ce\file-repository\ETL\.meta\metastore\.lock

(local-repository root)\.meta\metastore\.lock

Kettle - Spoon version 5.4.0.1-130

I was also facing a similar issue and was able to resolve it by deleting the lock.

Pentaho tool creates .pentaho directory in the home directory.

inside .pentaho delete .lock from

.pentaho/metastore/.lock

and also delete .lock file

/home/pdi-ce-9.1.0.0-324/data-integration

restart your pentaho tool.

hope above solution works for you.
