Maybe when you tried to take the door off you might have unhooked something in the process keeping you from locking the door. Have you tried to take the door off again to see if thats the problem?

when my sister bought her 94 civic ( new with 36miles on it ) she was always locking her door outside because she couldn't lock the door inside, and i found you needed to hold the latch when locking so i think it's normal

honda did this on purpose so its harder to lock your keys in the car. unless it won't lock with the door closed, in which case, you have a problem
