backup the wallet ,  exit the wallet , go to the data file folder where the blockchains and wallet are stored , then delete everything except "wallet" folder , the restart the wallet and wait ... ...

I'm having this same error after power loss in the computer while running the QT with 4.27.1 in Windows 7.

Look in the %AppData%/Bitshares tree for a file called, "LOCK" and delete it.

I came to this exact error today too. I think it's a bug.

What platform? Try to check the process list, and see if there's another instance running.
