Tridion Docs – Cannot replace dlls with updated versions; ‘Folder In Use’ error

000020528 |4/18/2023 8:02 PM
Scope/Environment
Symptoms/Context
When attempting to replace a dll on a customer’s production server with an updated version, the action would not complete, and a Folder In Use error displayed. Confirmed all relevant services were stopped: Trisoft app pools, Trisoft-InfoShare-Author COM+ app, and Trisoft InfoShare BackgroundTask One service.

Resolution
We found that we could rename the existing dll and move it out of the folder. We then copied the updated dll into the folder successfully.
Other suggested troubleshooting tasks:
  • Confirm that all IIS Trisoft app pools, Trisoft-InfoShare-Author COM+ application, and the Trisoft InfoShare BackgroundTask One service are shut down.
  • Shut down the TranslationBuilder service.
  • Check for similarly named dlls in the same folder – this can conflict.
  • Verify that other users are logged out of the server.
  • Confirm that CloudOps has stopped sensors during the updates and keeps services shut down.
  • To see if the dll is still being used by another process, download https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/listdlls on the server. Run as an administrator and capture the results. Search for the dll name.
  • Make sure the dll isn't blocked in its properties; right-click the dll and view Properties. On the General tab, there may be a Security section with an Unblock button option. If so, unblock it.
  • If there are still problems, it may be necessary to request the servers to be rebooted; the server may need some system updates, or rebooting may clear other processes still running the dll.
