How to submit errata when a coauthor disagrees
I'll give a few options that occur to me.
Talk to the editor. Essentially ask him what to do. On the one hand he has a policy he wants to follow, and on the other hand he presumably wants correction …

How to prevent being intimidated by juniors in your group publishing before you
First off: if you are not a full time student, it's natural that you will take longer than others (who I presume are full time students). Don't feel too pressured by this.
