Unlocking File That Has Been Locked With Vshost
Mar 20, 2008
I have developed a program that allows drag and drop pictures using the followng [code] this will display the image in the pictruebox and saves the location of the image to a database. at this time i can rename the image in windows using the file.rename() function.now if i exit and come back into the section of the program with the image.i query the database for the image location and use the same type of code aka ploc [code]Now when i try to do a rename of the file i get an error that says access denied. I have even tried changing images, but as long as i am in the program i get access denied.I also can not change or delete these file from windows as long as my application is runningfile.rename() Is there a way to force my program to stop using this picture so i cand rename or delte it?

I am running a simple test app that opens an OLEDB connection, retrieves a single value, then closes. The compiled (console) app works fine, but running it from the IDE causes either a silent close (if it's a winforms app) or a crash of vshost32.exe if it's a console app.
The devenv is VB 2010 Express on Windows x64, but I have the configuration manager on the solution set to "Debug" - "x86".
Imports System.Data.OleDb
Module Module1
Sub Main()
Dim server As String = "xxxxx"

I have a program that runs fine in the debugger. I started on the project in x86 mode this January and I've always been able to run it outside of the debugger, but this is the first time I've seen this error.The error says "ConfigurationErrorException was unhandled: Configuration system failed to initialize."The InnerException of the error said that the error was in the user.config file, and it gave me the directory of the user.config file that it was using. So I clicked synchronize in the project settings thinking that it would overwrite the current user.config file and that would probably fix the error. When it showed the confirmation dialog that it would delete the user.config file, I noticed that it had "vshost" in the directory.

I am unable to debug any projects as of a Windows Update 2 days ago. It not only caused problems with VS 2008 but also SQL Server 2008. I did a system restore and my SQL Server is back to normal, but VS 2008 will not debug any projects. I get a vshost.exe has stopped working and then a file exception error. I am copying the file exception msg:System.IO.FileNotFoundException was unhandled
Message="Could not load file or assembly 'sortkey.nlp' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified."

I have tried repairing VS 2008 and also a SFC scanow from the cmd prompt. I have also tried unchecking the vshosting property. Nothing works

I have written an application that monitors a log file. The Log file is locked by the writing application so I read it asynchronously:
Dim LicenseLog As New System.IO.FileStream("\serverLOGlicense.log", IO.FileMode.Open, IO.FileAccess.Read, IO.FileShare.ReadWrite)

I am loading data from an Excel File to a dataset and performing some computation. The problem arises after the application is closed, the Excel file is locked for some reason and can only be read.

I have been using VB2005 for many years on 2 PCs. Over the last month I have been getting an error when I try to run the project from the IDE:
Error 1 Unable to copy file "objx86DebugBackup.exe" to "binx86DebugBackup.exe". The process cannot access the file 'binx86DebugBackup.exe' because it is being used by another process.
C:WindowsMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv2.0.50727Microsoft.Common.targets 2324 9 Backup
My questions:
1. What has changed?
2. One thread I found suggested that it is a bug, but if true is this something that has been introduced recently (I'm not aware up updating VB2005 unless it happened as part of the general updates).
3. How do I get it back to where it was?
The file is actually locked by my own process, no other application can be using it. I've even tried it with a few line noddy program. I always have to come right out of the IDE, wait a couple of minutes and then go back in - a total productivity killer.

Quote:
System.Exception: Transaction (Process ID xx) was deadlocked on lock resources with another process and has been chosen as the deadlock victim.
I suspect this
Dim webc As New WebClient
webc.DownloadFile(remotexml, targetxml)
webc.Dispose()
Then i am using the targetxml right after that:
Dim xmldoc As New XmlDocument
xmldoc.Load(targetxml)
etc.
It seems that xml file is locked by the first process (WebClient).

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 application is like a client for a game site. I made it for the fan site i am apart of to help the members of our community.The application crashes when you click play on the game at the site. The game site uses Java all games are made in Java so i am guessing its a conflict with the Java, if you can help me it would be great i will attach a copy of the application for you to look at if you need.The password for the application is "cr2pafut" user name is anything you want it to be.url...

Last week my nearly seven year old computer CROAKED. My data is fine, but the machine just quit.I have a new 64-bit Windows 7 computer as I was forced away from my old friend XP and left no real option. I'm not sure that that's related to this problem or not, but I suspect that it is.
I re-installed Visual Studio 2008 and set about to make sure things worked or figure out what didn't and try to get them resolved. I'm up against a very basic issue here that I have no idea about though (please keep in mind that I'm so new to this whole Win 7 thing that I'm not sure if it's a security issue or what, and if it is, I haven't a clue how to do anything with it).
I set up a very basic little test program, added an Access database (one table) using the connection wizard. I've done that thousands of times on my old machine and never had the first problem with it.
I added it to the form in a DataGridView and go to run it and Win 7 pops up several things about "vshost had a problem". It shows no data in the grid even though I know there's data in the table.
Here's a curious part: I thought that I'd get it to tell me how many rows it's "seeing" after the table adapter fills it, so in the form's load event just after the fill, I declare a integer to tell me the row count. I put a break point there and it never GETS to that second line!

This code seems to be accurate when comparing to the many examples that are similar on different forums and I would think it should work:
Dim pC As New Process
pC.StartInfo.CreateNoWindow = True
pC.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = True[code]....
When I remove the pC.BeginOutputReadLine() command, the application continues to function, but nothing is added to lbOutput.
With the pC.BeginOutputReadLine() command, it gives the error "vshost.exe has stopped working"
Either way, my batch file does what its supposed to do. Any one have any ideas what I am doing wrong with the process?
