Error on WTS - file in use

[johnc30]

I am running Windows 2000/ MetaFrame XP. About 20 users. Suddenly, this
afternoon, user are receiving an error that says:

c:\b7\pd7333\spec\fdaspec.xdb - file is in use by another user.

The options are retry or cancel. If they click either, they lock up.

I have rebooted the server, and had the users all log out and back in, but
the error still comes up.

Has anyone ever seen this, or have any ideas how to fix it?

Hi,
We had the same problem a while ago. We've also spend allot of time trying to trace and replicate the problem, but with no success. Our final investigation led us to believe that the spec file was corrupted. A Full package solved our problem

Yes, we have had this problem also.
It took reloading/coping the specification files to correct. Best guess this is cuased by JITI in the WTS environment. To stop this we turn off JITI and copy a full DDDICT and DDTEXT specs to the terminal servers.
