error GEN1055: File not found or locked

[NewsArchive]

I just upgraded my main development machine from XP to Vista. I had a
script that was compiling fine before, and I've just tried it the
first time running under Vista. I receive the following error:

>Files.sbi(29): error GEN1055: File not found or locked: w:\stabsync.inc

This file exists, and shouldn't be any different than any other being
packed up by this install. I've used SysInternals Process Explorer to
verify that it's not current open by any other process.

What do I do next?

Mike,

This error means that the CreateFile() Windows API returns an invalid
handle.

Are you creating a copy of this file somewhere (and so the error
doesn't refer to the original file), or using that function to read
the original?

Hi Mike,

No, the compiler does not create any copy of your file. It just opens the
file to compress it.

Well it seems not to be a problem anymore, so I'm just going to
pretend that it didn't happen. <g>
