I guess it could be a problem if caching is off, but if its on (highly recommended), then Witango doesn't access the file at all until cache is purged, which needs to be done for it to read your new file.

For instance if i have a dostuff.taf and someone makes a request of it while we are uploading a new dostuff.taf or someone makes a request to dostuff.taf while we are uploading can that cause any problems or should file locking handle this situation correctly as far as witango is concerned? This is for witango 5.0.1.065 running on windows 2003. I'm asking because we have a utility that we use to check out/check in .taf files right now and every so often witango will crash as will our utility on the server side at the same time, sometimes right after checking a file back in (uploading) to the server.
