The file is being used by some other process

hi ,

Am trying to read from and write to a same xml file.i have no prob when
reading the xml file.but when i write to the same file i get the following
error even after closing the reader object(which is open).

The file is being used by some other process.

---------------------------------------------------

This is what am doing in the code:

i have used the XmlTextReader and loaded the file to an XmlDocument
object and closed the Reader object. and after the processing of the
documnet, am writing to the file by passing a XmltextWriter obj to the
save() method in XmlDocument class. [more over I came to know that the
reader.close() only changes the read state to closed]

-------------------------------------------------------

Code Block here:

xdoc.Load(fs); //Loading the file

try

{fs.Close(); //Closing the file

Thread.Sleep(10 00);

}

catch

{Thread.Sleep(1 000);}

xmltagfinder();

XmlNode unode;

nodelist=xdoc.G etElementsByTag Name(xnode.Name );

unode=nodelist[0].FirstChild;
count=nodelist. Count;i=0;

while(i!=count)

{

if(unode.Parent Node.ParentNode .Name!="LIST_IT EMS")

{

if(Convert.ToIn t32(unode.Inner Text)==Convert. ToInt32(id1))

{

unode.NextSibli ng.InnerText="" ;

unode.NextSibli ng.InnerText=na me;

}

else

{

unode=nodelist[i].FirstChild;
}

}

i++;

xtr=null

xdoc.Save("d:/Dash2.xml"); //i also tried
xdoc.Save(fs);

}

I cannot reproduce the problem. After calling to XmlReader.Close () the
doc can be saved into the same file.
try

{fs.Close(); //Closing the file

Thread.Sleep(10 00);

} .... xdoc.Save(fs);


This is weird. fs has been closed already.

Hi; I copied a new set of files over to my ASP.NET dir (and subdirs) on our test server. This replaced every file for the app. When I first then tried to bring it up, I got the below error. After I bounced IIS, then it worked fine. log4net.dll is in the Bin directory. What is going on here - this makes no sense to me.
