You tried to give a parameter to flock that is a boolean and not a resource. Without knowing more it is very difficult to help.

But lets assume you use fopen to open a file, then this can maybe help you.

public function errorLog()
{
    $resource = fopen('/path/to/file', 'r+');
    if (!$resource) {
        throw new \Exception('failed to open a file handler');
    }
    $lock = flock($resource, LOCK_EX);
    if (!$lock) {
        throw new \Exception('failed to get lock');
    }
    // do something and release the lock
    flock($resource, LOCK_UN);
}
