I own a 2012 Astra j and I have had a lot of problems recently with the car locking itself when the drivers door is moved. It has mainly been an intermittent problem, but now it happens 90% of the time I open the door. It does not matter if the car is: Running, Ignition on, or being unlocked; but when the drivers door is opened, the car will lock and unlock itself multiple times. Its causing me a lot of issues as I have already been locked out twice
If anyone else has had similar problems and knows the cause and/or how to fix it, I would be very grateful for some recommendations.
First of all welcome....

Have you checked the wiring to the door? I would also disconnect the battery for an hour to reset the system just in case it's a computer problem.

Welcome.

Not heard of this problem before it could many things.

Faulty key fob, faulty lock/unlock button on dash faulty module a broken wire a bad ground or just the BCM having a massive freak out.

I would try as @bhalay207 says, if that doesn't resolve the issue you could try unplugging the button in the car also try using another key or changing the battery.
Check the boor looms are locked in position
thanks for the answers,it was the locking mechanism,just change it whit another ,works just fine
