    Assuming you are talking about a rear door on a Disco, try removing the LandRover badge and spray all of the latching mechanism with WD40 or equivalent. Seen this issue on a Disco down South,turned out to be lack of lubrication and dirt buildup, working WD40 into the mechanism fixed the problem.

    sometimes the little round spring on the door latch breaks and it doesnt pop the mechanism up so it wont unlock... you can buy the little springs off ebay.uk
