Unmodified files hanging out in Works in Progress

I'm seeing something odd in CCSTD. My Works in Progress portlet has many files in it which appear with the pencil (modified) icon. If I try to submit them, it gives me the "The file has not been changed since the last submit. There is no need to resubmit the file. " error. If I click next anyway, it takes me back to CCSTD and the file is still there. If I view the properties on the file, it shows the version as 1 (not 1+). So, anyone have any ideas why it's in WIP and what I can do to get rid of it? Any chance this is related to the renaming of folders and such that I recently did?

Are the files in question files that were within the folders that were renamed?
You could try using iwlistmod from the command line on the server to see if you can get more information (like where the file is modified, when, by whom, etc.)
You might need to do a Submit without any files selected in the workarea to "clear state"

I've tracked it down to the specific folder that causes the problems. /home/html/km. If I do a Get Latest with overwrite all on that folder, I get five deleted folders back from STAGING (it finally occured to me to change the view to All and Deleted Files).

An iwlistmod shows no differences at that point:

C:\Documents and Settings\V009272>iwlistmod /default/main/Intranet/TSG/WORKAREA/content/home/html/km

If I delete the km folder again and do another iwlistmod, I see its deletion:
C:\Documents and Settings\V009272>iwlistmod /default/main/Intranet/TSG/WORKAREA/content/home/html/
x+ km

Just for giggles, I decided to try to submit from the command line:
C:\Documents and Settings\V009272>iwsubmit /default/main/Intranet/TSG/WORKAREA/content/home/ht
ml "die, die, die"
/default/main/Intranet/TSG/WORKAREA/content/home/html: ERROR:02017: Checked out files prevent
submitting

I even get that with the -x:
C:\Documents and Settings\V009272>iwsubmit -x /default/main/Intranet/TSG/WORKAREA/content/home
/html "die, die, die"
/default/main/Intranet/TSG/WORKAREA/content/home/html: ERROR:02017: Checked out files prevent
submitting

The error implies that the problem is with a lock on something, but if I do an iwlistlocks on that workarea, all the locks I see are under /templatedata.

Oops - I spaced out and put my reply on the wrong post. The above was (obviously) about my problem deleting files, not about the unmodified files showing up in WIP.

I don't know where the original thread is - so since you posted here, I'll respond here.

Do you/did you have more than one workarea on that branch at some point in time?
If so - the locks may be held in another workarea - try running iwlistlocks at the *branch* level (e.g.: iwlistlocks /default/main/www -- rather than iwlistlocks /default/main/www/WORKAREA/mumble)

I did have a second workarea at one time when I was first playing around with the idea of reorganizing the content. I assumed that any locks would be released when I deleted the workarea. Doing an iwlistlocks on the branch does not reveal any locks at all under /home
