Vista - Foldershare Permission error with SQL database

reitking · 05-01-2008

I am getting the error message:

"Foldershare was unable to open this file to replace it with a newer version. Please close the file if you have it open and check that you have permission to access it."

The file is a .MYD mysql file. I have administrator privileges on all computers.

There is no way to get around this error, the only thing I can do is shut down foldershare, which is clearly not a good option.

Is there anything I can do about this?

Try using the sysinternals Process Explorer utility to find which
process has the file open.

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried that, but it doesn't show any process as using that file. I think it has something to do with permissions (since that is a password protected database).

Is there some way to work that into Foldershare so it can transfer it?

For now, I just removed that file from the sync, but I don't like that as a long-term solution.
