[Armand]

i use the following :

expandcollapse popup

FileWrite("TryingShit.tmp",1)
While FileGetSize("TryingShit.tmp")<10000000
    $file = FileOpen("TryingShit.tmp",17)
    If $file = -1 Then
        ConsoleWrite("-6, couldn't open the file: "&$file&" for writing!"&@CRLF)
        Exit
    EndIf
    $ret = FileWrite($file,"0x1E00008D542408528D4C241451E85BD900008B04242B4424088943188BC383C4205BC3538BD85683C4E8668B038BF2

        Exit 
    EndIf
WEnd

as just an example for my real code which instead of writing the above line get a different line from a tcp connection.

the process is working propperly, Recieving and Saving the data to the file, opening->writing->closing the file, over and over again untill somehow in the middle of the process (every time in different location) it's giving me an error on the FileOpen part of the script (which is formed just as the above !!!)

+i've figured hey... it must be because there is a failure in closing the file and thus as it is still open it can't be opened again... -but then again - the fileclose function never returns an error (or exits the script for that matter...)

+then i've tried the above code to see if the fileopen() func has a limit to file size.

- noep, no such limit... worked up to the entire 10000 bytes...

+My most recent idea is that the fileOpen() func has a certain timer which limits the opening of a certain file too many times in a certain time-integer...

- as i've just read what i wrote i've realized that that can't also be true since the 'While' loop is just as fast as the While loop in my script...

- why does such phenomena occur ?!

- how do i ovade it ?!

ANY HELP WILL BE APPRICIATED !!!

I don't get any error ... what is the exact error and what version are you using ?

[Armand]

no pop-up error msg !!!

the function 'fileOpen()' returns '-1' after a while as i've explained !!!

my version is (as just returned by auto-update-it) 3.2.8.1

- just now first time the error wasn't returned... seems randomatic!

ran it 5 times without any errors....

Are you using a local harddrive to store it on or something else ?

[Armand]

i'll say it again... it's not happening with this code but with my original code which is too long to put here... but does the same action ...

saving to local hd.

ok... I am done ...

My guess is that the script you can't post exhausts the filesystem. So you have to do a sleep or a flush the filesystem. I have experienced something similar some years ago. Don't remember how I did the flush but found it at MSDN, so it is left as an exercise..
