Claude, I know when I was using WebTrends the newest file was always locked by IIS and could not be processed until the predetermine time period per file was over. However, the file was viewable with notepad and etc. Have you tried opening any older files? Also, I know from my experience, it was easier to deal with the logs when IIS only logged 1 hour per file. Also the over all space used by all of the files was smaller. -Aaron

I suppose the other process is IIS, however, I can still read the file into WordPad, of transfer it by FTP, so I suppose the file is not locked by IIS. Then the problem must be with CFFILE. If CFFILE attempts to lock the file prior reading it, it would fail, but why would CF lock the file? Any idea? (I'm under CF 5) -- _______________________________________ REUSE CODE!
