There are two kinds of locks involved.  Arch does revision locking using 
directory renames.  There's apparently also some locking that Apache 
does, and that's not working:

[Fri Mar  4 14:26:54 2005] [error] [client 192.168.100.68] Could not 
open the lock database.  [500, #400]

That means that MOVE doesn't work.  When MOVE doesn't work, Arch locking 
doesn't work.  So it appears to be a WebDAV configuration problem.  I 
haven't used WebDAV, so I don't have any specific advice, but that's 
where to look for a solution.
