Re: Windows 'Access denied' errors

Hello D.J.,

Lately, since 0.30.0, I have had more problems with Subversion than
previously. Up to 0.29.0, I did not have many errors of this type.

Yesterday, I was playing some MP3 using the Windows Media Player. WiMP
uses from 5 to 30% of the CPU time. I thought that by lowering it's
priority, I could lower the frequency of those errors. I thought I had
something there, but it looks like this is not true.

This morning, I just committed a few changes to my repository, and here
are the results:
K:\jobnudge-issues>svn commit
Deleting assigned\fbos\0011
Adding resolved\0011
Deleting resolved\0011\resolution
svn: A problem occurred; see later errors for details
svn: Commit succeeded, but other errors follow:

Subversion was supposed to tell me more, but it never did so. I did get
an application failure (a GPF), but did not note it. Sorry about that.
Before 0.30.0, I never got those GPFs. There must be something more that
changed in 0.30.0 with regards to previous versions.

I will check those services and try to shut them down and see if the
frequency of the access denied errors changes.

Will report back with more data next time.

Thanks,
François
