Asp.net - Avoid The Unwanted Use Of "Attach To The Process " In VB 2008 In Windows XP?

May 7, 2012

I am working on Visual Studio 2008. I have this problem with Windows XP. I have no problems debugging when the process starts but after a while it just disconnects then I need to attach to the process manually and after a longer while it again disconnects.I am seriously frustrated with this ,I had uninstalled the VS 2008 and re-installed my IIS and intalled the VS 2008 again but still the same problem.Initially VS will automatically attach, it will continue to do so on successive debug commands, but eventually after a while it stops attaching and it must be done manually. Hitting debug does everything, builds, starts the development server, opens the page and simply fails to attach.

IDE :: "Unable To Copy File The Process Cannot Access The File Because It Is Being Used By Another Process" Visual Studio 2005 Compile

Sep 21, 2007

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:

Error 11 Unable to copy file "objDebugCAMDRS.Library.dll" to "binCAMDRS.Library.dll". The process cannot access the file 'binCAMDRS.Library.dll' because it is being used by another process. CAMDRS.Library.

After closing Visual Studio 2005 and reopening the solution I can compile again successfully. This is an old solution that has been fine for a long time. I just recently changed computers and reinstalled everything.I am running win XP Pro sp2, Visual Studio 2005 sp1.

The Process Cannot Access The File Because Another Process Has Locked A Portion Of The File?

Feb 1, 2012

My program writes to a .txt file (and this is the ONLY program that writes to it) in a thread (with lowest priority), but every now and then it gets an error "The process cannot access the file because another process has locked a portion of the file" when it executes this code: swLog.WriteLine(sPacket).Other program reads from the file, not write to it, why do I get this error, and how can I get around it, or what shall I do when I get this error since I can't write to the file ?

The Process Cannot Access The File 'FILENAME' Because It Is Being Used By Another Process - Error

Aug 31, 2009

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.

The Process Cannot Access The File 'C:UsersJoshuaDocumentsTest1.txt' Because It Is Being Used By Another Process

Dec 4, 2011

The process cannot access the file 'C:UsersJoshuaDocumentsTest1.txt' because it is being used by another process.Now the Problem. When i step through my code, it will do as intended, e.g. clear all contents of test1.txt. when i run it at run time it throws this error. The reason for it throwing an error is the text file is reading string, int, string, and the txt file has a string including in the int part, so i'm making it so you can empty a corrupt file.

Folder-monitoring Windows Service Gets "process Cannot Access The File Because It Is Being Used By Another Process"

May 26, 2009

I have created a Windows service in VS 2005 that monitors a folder for XML files, reads some data elements from the XML using XmlDocument, then copies the files to another location. I find that when I drop 2 or more XML files into the folder simultaneously, it processes them with no problems, but when I drop the same files into the folder one at a time, I will get an error on the second file: "The process cannot access the file <my file> because it is being used by another process." If I stop my service, restart it, and drop the second file into the folder again, it works the second time. I am confident that no other program is accessing this file at the same time as my service. My impression is that the processing of file # 1 is somehow not releasing all of the resources, leading to the processing of file # 2 mistakenly thinking that it can't access that second file.

Using WSF (Windows Scripting File) To Retrieve Component Services Running Process ID's Using Running Process Name

May 7, 2009

I am trying to write a Windows Script that will allow me to monitor the following: That 2 x seperate but specific processes within Component Services "Running Processes" list are currently running and have not reset within the past hour. If I already know the PID, then I can retrieve the CreationDate (I assume which I can use to check for restarts? or is this the actual process creation/installation date) for each specific process, however if a restart occurs the PID will change and my script needs to know what the new PID is without me telling it!

VS 2005 Windows Services - Process Is Listed As A SYSTEM Process Rather Than A Process Under User Name

Jun 4, 2009

I have written a windows service that is meant to launch a notepad when a specific action happens. The problem i have is that even though the service launches notepad, the actual notepad it self is NOT visible. I know that it has been launced because i can see the process in the task manager. By the way the process is listed as a SYSTEM process rather than a process under my user name (i believe that is because my process is a "LocalSystem" one).

Screen Blanks After 1 Min Of Processing (of Excel File) / Refresh Or Freeze Screen To Avoid Blank Screen?

Jun 29, 2011

BTW this issue occurs in any MS office program when the VB.Net (or even VBA) is processing information.Example: In Excel, a worksheet is displayed on the screen. I start either, a VB.Net or VBA procedure and within 30 seconds the Excel worksheet (previously displayed) blanks out. In both VB.Net and VBA,ScreenUpdating = False. My expectation is that the previously displayed screen would stay static as if I left my desk to get a cup of coffee; came back and the same ole Excel worksheet was still there?Of course, setting VBA Screen Updating = False accomplishes two goals: 1) speeds up processing and 2) saves the user from seeing unnecessary "garbage-processing" steps.Why does VBA or VB.Net ScreenUpdating = False not freeze the screen at the time of its invoking?

"The Process Cannot Access The File '" Because It Is Being Used By Another Process" Error

Aug 10, 2010

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 )
