ColdFusion could not delete the file

[Guest]

Good day all im getting this error. cant figure it out

"ColdFusion could not delete the file c:\ColdFusion8\wwwroot\Jewel\images\stock\203083.jpg for an unknown reason"

I tried installing the 801 update the patch using :

http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb403622&sliceId=1
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb403411&sliceId=1

However this does not seem to be working,... but the file is there...
Does anyone have a solution to this problem

Hi,

Please check and confirm that you have enough permissions over the folder (in where you are trying to perform the delete operation).

i must have as when the machine starts up it will allow me to delete it the first time then upload the new image to overright the file.. then when i try it again if gives that error...

When i restart coldfusin service it will allow me to delete the file again.. its as if the file is getting locked by coldfusion

Hi,

It seems that CF is performing a read operation (uploading a newer image) as soon as you delete one..

So give enough time for CF to perform it's read operation.. One way to accomplish this putting the following statement before your delete code.

<cfset createObject("java", "java.lang.Thread").sleep(JavaCast("int", 5000))>

Ok that did not work either so i tried removing the statement where it deletes the file.. and just rename the file

now i get error

The value of the attribute source, which is currently c:\ColdFusion8\wwwroot\Jewel\images\stock\Winter2.jpg, is invalid

has coldfusion 8 changed something with file's and images.. this coding worked perfectly under coldfusion mx7

Hi,

Try this,

I download a file called unlocker... it shows what process are locking what files under a directory... it say jrun.exe is locking the file...

This is still 10 min after i tried access the file.. so jrun.exe is not releasing the lock.. any ideas?

you sure you have all hotfixes installed? this was definitely fixed in
one of the recent ones...

also, i am no quiet sure about referencing [previous] cffile inside
another cffile tag:

<cffile action="rename"
source="#dirlocation#\images\stock\#CFfile.serverfile#"
destination="#dirlocation#\images\stock\#FORM.code#.jpg">

see if setting a RESULT attribute in your cffile action='upload' tag and
referencing that instead in your cffile action='rename' solves the
problem...
