We see this very, very often on uv / NT. We've talked to the uv support guys and they say it is an NT problem. What happens is that the table of open files becomes out of sync with reality -- NT "thinks" that the file is open, even though it isn't. When you attempt the resize, NT "tells" uv that the file is open and the uv RESIZE quits with the error message that you saw.
The solution is to reboot the server, thus resetting the table of open files. If there is a solution not requiring a reboot I am not aware of it. Since this seems to be an NT problem, bouncing uv doesn't seem to resolve it. I suspect that the table becomes out of sync due to abnormal disconnects, etc. However, I've not been able to purposely cause the problem nor can I usually trace the problem to any specific network problem, etc. If anyone else has any insights it would be appreciated, as it's a pain to reboot before resizing.

Quite often, I am unable to resize a file. I get a message like this: >RESIZE WKC 2 189 2 RESIZE: Error on WKC. File not resized. UVFIXFILE claims that there is nothing wrong with the file. I thought I'd copy off the data and recreate the file, but if I try to DELETE.FILE the file, UV fails to do it. I CAN delete the DICT, and I CAN CLEAR.FILE the file, after which it still cannot be resized nor deleted. Anyone have a clue?
