How can i access a file through FileStream which is being used by a window service. Actually i am trying to access a file which is also being used by our window service. I need to read data from this file. I am using below code but also getting following error:
Code:
Dim fs1 As IO.FileStream = New IO.FileStream(psPath, IO.FileMode.Open, IO.FileAccess.Read, IO.FileShare.Read)
Dim sr As IO.StreamReader = New IO.StreamReader(fs1)
sData = sr.ReadToEnd
Error: The process cannot access the file 'FILENAME' because it is being used by another process.
I tried changing FileShare.Read parameter to FileShare.None but it didn't work out. I also read below post which says that it is not possible but i think there is a way to read it like if you open a file through Firefox but still window service is accessing it.
I'm trying to write text to / read text from a file, but when it's trying to execute the My.Computer.FileSystem.WriteAllText code, it throws an exception: "The process cannot access to the file "<filename>" because it's being used by another process", and the "source" of the exception is "mscorlib"Note: this is a DLL file, which is being used by an application.
I tried to use:

I'm trying to delete a file, which prompts the error: "can not delete File in use by another process". I've been researching this for the last couple of days, and have tried every possible suggestion, I've come across, but still keep getting the error. I'm hoping someone might have a suggestion on what I need to change or rearrange in my code to get around this.
The program loads a group of files into a listbox, user selects which files to process, Each file is sent through the sub (process files) to be renamed, and then processed through external programs then removed from the listbox. Each file in the list HAS to be renamed the same in order for the external program to process it. This is where I'm getting the error message, as I need to delete the previous file before renaming the new one. Parts of my code may seem redundant, but its where I was trying every possible scenario of closing the process and or stream that's leaving the file open. [Code]

I'm writing a little program where I select a picture through an open file dialogue. When I selected a picture I want it to overwrite the current picture and display the new image.

I have some coding which edits my text file and saves two versions, the first version removes all multiple space with one space and saves it as a text file and the second replaces the spaces with a comma and saves it as a csv file. The problem I have is however later on when I run other code using the saved text and csv files, it looks like the processes are in use. I get the following error:
The process cannot access the file 'Path' because it is being used by another process.My actual coding:
Private OpenFileName As String = IO.Path.Combine(Application.StartupPath, "TextFile1.txt")
Private SaveFileName As String = IO.Path.Combine(Application.StartupPath, "TextFile2.txt")
Private SaveFileName2 As String = IO.Path.Combine(Application.StartupPath, "TextFile3.csv")

View 11 RepliesI have a somewhat weird problem with a program i'am writing in VB2005. When I debug the program and start 1 backgroundworker (got 8 different backgroundworkers in the program) in VB2005 nothing goes wrong, but when i'm starting 2 or more backgroundworkers I get an NullReferenceException when trying to read from a MySQL database (withing a few minutes in debugging). This error isn't always in the same backgroundworker, but is always in the same block of code in a backgroundworker (1 of 8). I tried different approaches in getting the results I need, for example with read1.HasRows(), but this also didn't workt... the MySQL table doesn't also seem to be the problem.
Line 8 is where I get the error (read1.Read())... This is a snippet from backgroundworker1, but is also randomly happens in the other 8 backgroundworkers as well... When I'am trying to read te content of read1 is says "Nothing" when the error occures...

I have made a small program which loads a file into a listview when somebody presses the load button on the form. The user can also put information in the listview by filling in some textboxes and press on the add button.So now the weird thing is that if the user loads an empty file ( With no information in it ) and presses load on the form and after that tries to add information to the file you get a "The process cannot access the file '" because it is being used by another process" error.
The code for the load button is as followed: ( So here accountfile 2 is loaded )

View 6 RepliesI am working on a small VB application that listens for commands sent from an Android app.
One of the functions is to extract an archive. I am familiar with how to listen for the unrar process to finish, so I can display a progressdialog on the phone while the extraction is happening, and clear it as soon as it's done.
BUT ... if there is an error/alert from WinRAR, WaitForExit() never gets called because WinRAR is still sitting there open until I click "OK" on the MsgBox.
For Example ... if you try to extract a file that is not actually an archive... an alert will pop up saying "No Archives Found", and basically everything is halted on the VB app and the Android app, and the Android app just sits on a progressdialog saying "extracting..." until you manually hit "OK" on the computer.
As you can imagine, this is a problem if the whole point of your app is to NOT have to go over to the computer.
So... I am wondering if there is something similar to WaitForExit() that will wait for an error and allow me to close out the alert and let the process end.
Here's my Sub for the UnRar command:
Private Sub UnRar(ByVal WorkingDirectory As String, ByVal filepath As String)
Dim objRegKey As RegistryKey
objRegKey = Registry.ClassesRoot.OpenSubKey("WinRARShellOpenCommand")

how to save information into a text file from runtime VB2005. However, I wish to be able to write the information into any kind of form of file that cannot be simply opened and read by anyone (such as text file can be). Is there anyway that VB2005 can do this?

When I load my solution and compile it after first starting the IDE, everything works as expected. After changing source and recompiling, I get the following compile error:

I have completed my VB code and decided to publish it(make program an installable program). However, I want to rename my project so that when I publish it, the program will be the name I want. Now, my project is named as "Trial" when I first started. Now I want to change to "Monitor" due to some reasons. So it means having to renames all the files in that project as "Monitor" instead of "Trial".
