Code Analyzer - file in use problem

[Kristin]

Hi All,

Using CF10 Enterprise: I occasionally use the Code Analyzer on a dev server when I upload a bunch of code to catch syntax errors before testing.  Sometimes it seems to "hang on" to the the files and not let me upload(ftp)/overwrite any of the files recently analyzed.  Usually when that happens, I can just analyze another directory, then it "lets go" of the original directory.  So recently I did just that, but now it will not "let go" of some of the files.

By this, I mean when I try to ftp some files up to the server, I get permission denied, the file is in use by another process.  If I get on the server, I can edit the file directly, but I can't delete it, it tells me the file is in use by coldfusion.exe.  It is just a few (cfm) files within one particular directory on the site.  Not all files, and so far, I haven't seen this on any other directories.

Any ideas on how to get CF to "release" these files?

Thanks,

Kristin

Hi Kristin,

It sounds like the code analyzer is not closing the files after reading them, or perhaps if there is a syntax error in the file it keeps it open... To workaround this I would simply run the code analyzer locally on my computer instead of on the server.

I haven't really seen any other issue of coldfusion hangin on to a file like that unless some sort of error condition occurred while processing the file, for example: https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=3929327

Thanks Pete, in the future, I'll do that.  But how do I get CF to close the files it says are in use on the server now?  Do I need to restart CF?

Thanks,

Kristin

Restarting is the only way that I know of.

Kristin, if you're using a Windows server, you may be able to open Share and Storage Management, choose the "Manage Open Files..." option, choose the file(s) currently locked, then close them that way. Good luck!

Regards,

Jason

Ok, thanks Jason, I'll try that first, and restart CF if it doesn't work.

Thanks!
