When either me or my friend tries to invite the other after starting a session it fails to sync projects because an other process or program(not sure if it was process or program its been like a day since that) is blocking a file or some files. What do i need todo to make saros work
Your one or the one of you friend
eclipse auto updates right?
Please check in you marketplace under help
Invitation was canceled locally because of an error: I / O failure: org.eclipse.core.runtime.CoreException: The process cannot access the file because another process has blocked part of the file
thats the full error
well the part thats under the details
thats the log
Could you provide the Saros log? It can be found in the workspace of the project: <workspace>/.metadata/.plugins/saros.eclipse/log/<date>/*.log
Also, are you using any other IDE plugins (especially ones adding support for other programming languages; those have caused trouble in the past) in combination with Saros?
thats probably the right thing
i have only 1 other plugin installed and that plugin is json editor and i would be sad if it wouldnt be working with saros
i instrcuted my friend to install the json plugin like 2 days ago
and it didnt work with both of us having that plugin
that is another error log without clearing the log after start
this is eclipse error log from my friend probably without clearing the log first
so it has something todo with the project
ill send it to ya in a bit
i hope that helps
My first assumption was that you are using windows and the gradle daemon would lock your file (as in gradle/gradle#937 issue), but I was not able to reproduce the issue with eclipse and your project. I installed Eclipse 2019-09 with Saros 15.0.0 and the JSON Editor, removed your .classpath and .gradle dir (because of the system specific content of the .classpath file),imported the project as gradle project and shared it via Saros (without the exception). Could you provide further information (which OS you use), how we could reproduce the issue?
You can open the Resource Monitor switch to the Disk tab and go through the processes to see which process is currently using the affected files. Your issue is clearly not caused by Saros but a common problem when you want to access files under Windows that are (partially) locked by a specific process.
@srossbach i dont get it like how do i tell wich process is using affected files
You can also use https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/process-explorer to find the process. The tool has a search option for file handles.
