Re: RDS and NT holding a lock on a file
If you're running MS IIS (like most CF people are) then try stopping that service and restarting it. I have run accross problems with file locking where IIS will hold the file open for several minutes if the "Check if file exists" attribute is set on the .cfm extention under the filter configuration. Unchecking this box may help with your locking problem, and also may save a milisecond (or a little less) off your page load times because ISS won't have to check for the file before it passes the request to the CF processor. ___ Justin Scott :: [Staff Developer] http://www.annex.com - Original Message - From: "Aidan Whitehall" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Sunday, November 12, 2000 7:03 AM Subject: RE: RDS and NT holding a lock on a file > If anyone has *any* info on how to eliminate this error message, please > let me know. > > I just can't t-t-t-take it any more *sob* *sob* > > > > -Original Message- > > From: Aidan Whitehall [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > > Sent: 08 November 2000 16:22 > > To: CF-Talk > > Subject: RDS and NT holding a lock on a file > > > > > > There was a thread a while ago about NT (I think) holding a > -- It's actually an IIS thing, as someone mentioned -- > > lock on a file > > for 60 seconds.

RE: RDS and NT holding a lock on a file
It is the behaviour of IIS, not the OS. It retains a hold on files for 60 sec. to optimize performance. I remember seeing the topic come up before but, I don't remember if there is a registry/metabase hack for it or not. They use a lot of NT over at Figleaf ... Dave?
