Re: [Wrapper-user] Problems with 3.5.7 under Windows XP

[Karel V. <ka...@ou...>]

The test wrapper sample commands (-i, -r, -t ... ) seem to work, both
with absolute and with relative paths.

I found the problem, but can't reproduce it anymore:

I wanted to delete the log files (to make sure I was looking at the right one),
but I couldn't - they were still in use by a process. Checking the
task manager I found that there actually was a wrapper process
running. After killing that
I could delete the files AND the 3.5.7 wrapper started working again.

I don't know where that that running wrapper.exe process came from.
It's possible that this was still lingering from before the upgrade
(i.e. a 3.3.6 wrapper.exe), so that would be a border case not worth
further investigation.

Thanks for the quick reply,
Karel
