Lock file error

Hi! I've been using Unison for a few years, mainly to implement roaming profiles in linux by syncing local home folders to the server and back, depending of which computer a user is using that day. It was working properly for as long as I can remember, but lately, I'm getting the error: Fatal error: Warning: the archives are locked. There is a lk file in the server .unison directory. If I delete it, it get recreated the next time I run unison. I'm positive that I'm not syncing a local folder to the same folder over ssh because if I use the -ignorelocks switch on the command line, it works properly. I'm running Unison 2.51.5 (ocaml 4.13.1) on both the clients and the server. I'm reluctant to install a later version as it could break my packages on my LTS server. I also have the ignore = Name .* in the config file to prevent syncing the .unison folder. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?
