[olug] URPMI database locked

I have an old Mandriva distro (Mandriva Linux 2007) that I haven't 
updated for six months or better.   When I try using the "Configure My 
Computer/update programs" application, the app froze on download of one 
of the files and then gave me an error message of "URPMI database locked".

Anything I can do to unlock it?

Thanks for any help you can give on this.
