Process used by another

[Josema]

Hi,

i have a Web application and i get this error:

The process cannot access the file
"c:\inetpub\wwwroot\dotnet\Soluciones\Calculations \PhoneTariffs\Errors\Log.txt" because it is being used by another

The code that generates this error is the following:

Directory.CreateDirectory("c:\inetpub\wwwroot\Erro r");
File.Create("c:\inetpub\wwwroot\Error\log.txt");

System.IO.StreamWriter StreamLog=new
System.IO.StreamWriter("c:\inetpub\wwwroot\Error\l og.txt");
StreamLog.Write(e.Message);
StreamLog.Close();

How could avoid that error?.

Thanks a lot
Kind Regards.

You open the same file two times here.
There is no need for - File.Create("c:\inetpub\wwwroot\Error\log.txt");

You open the same file two times here.
There is no need for - File.Create("c:\inetpub\wwwroot\Error\log.txt");

And the StreamWriter created by that line of code is still open, which
is probably what is locking the file.
