I'm running into an issue where the "cancel editing" command fails to release a node due to an error, leaving it permanently locked. Because of this, I cannot execute any actions or modifications on it. Could you advise on the proper method to override this lock and forcibly free it?
Try using the REST API:
curl -u admin:admin \ -X POST \ -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \ 'http://localhost:8080/alfresco/api/-default-/public/alfresco/versions/1/nodes/<UUID>/unlock' \ -d '{}'
