I have a little program that occasionally fails. Unfortunately it is run
thousands of times a day, so fails once or twice a day. Essentially it
does this:
reads a file X and records the content
closes the file X
processes and modifies the content
writes the content to a temporary file
call sysfiledelete X
renames the temporary file to X
Sometimes the rename would fail, and it turned out that this was because
the sysfiledelete was failing with rc=5 (access denied).
I've worked around the problem by adding a retry loop with a short delay
-- but any ideas what could be causing the problem? The program is
running in it's own process, and no other process uses the file (except
perhaps Windows Search, but I wouldn't expect that to be looking at a data
file, nor so often).
This is on Windows 7, ooRexx 4.00
