Solution is to kill the process locking the database by killing it or rebooting.
Actually it should shut down cleanly on every exception. I'll have to look why it does not when I have some spare time.

Thanks for the explanation.
The basic concept I understand. Program connects to the database. Program crashes. Connection persists preventing restarted program to connect.
