Error deleting file

Zones: Cold Fusion Markup Language, ColdFusion Application Server, MySQL Server

Tags: Coldfusion 8, Mozilla, localhost

I get an error when a user tries to delete a file they uploaded to the system. I only get this error when the image there trying to delete was just viewed. This code works if the image as not been viewed. Is there a work around for this?

         
           
           
             <cffile action="delete" file="#qMyRecordSel.Location##qMyRecordSel.FileName#" >
<cfquery name="qMyRecordDel" datasource="#DSN#">
delete from photo
WHERE photoID = <cfqueryparam cfsqltype="cf_sql_integer" value="#url.recordid#">
</cfquery>
<cfoutput>
<p>Record and file deleted [#url.recordid#]: #qMyRecordSel.Location##qMyRecordSel.FileName#</p>
</cfoutput>
<cfcatch>
<cfoutput>
<p>Error occured deleting [#url.recordid#]: #qMyRecordSel.Location##qMyRecordSel.FileName#</p>
</cfoutput>
</cfcatch>
</cftry>
</cfif>

I supose the error arise because of changed URL parameter.
Can you post the output from this error message when error ocures:
<p>Error occured deleting [#url.recordid#](#url.recordid#): #qMyRecordSel.Location##qMyRecordSel.FileName#</p>

Here is the error:

Error occured deleting [30]: c:\coldfusion8\wwwroot\myMobi\photos\m1\CIMG0240.JPG

And you checked for the targeted file name that file is still there and not deleted, right?

04.14.2008 at 04:09PM PDT, ID: 21354751

sonicimpulse:

Yes. Then if I go on the coldfusion server I get an error that says this file is in use

04.14.2008 at 07:54PM PDT, ID: 21355608

sonicimpulse:

Been trying to do some research on this. For some reason the file is being locked. I need to unlock this file so a user can delete it.

"This code works if the image as not been viewed."
What is the code to View the file?

04.15.2008 at 06:26AM PDT, ID: 21358427

sonicimpulse:

Here is the code that displays the photo

<cfoutput query="photo">
<tr><th scope="col"><img src="../mymobi/photos/m#vmemberid#/#photo.filename#" width="250"/></th></tr>
</cfoutput>

Again it would be fine to se the complate source. I am looking for any cffile tags. Or any other options that can be suspected to have opened and locked the image file.

04.15.2008 at 07:16AM PDT, ID: 21358888

sonicimpulse:

Here it is. I pulled all the data that has to deal with the photo being displayed on the form

                       
                                <cfquery name="photo" datasource="security">
SELECT *
FROM member, cou, photo
WHERE cou.memberid=member.id AND 
photo.memberid=member.id AND
cou.ID = <cfqueryparam cfsqltype="cf_sql_integer" value="#url.recordid#"> 
</cfquery>
 
<cfset MaxRows_photo=10>
<cfset MaxRows_photo=4>
<cfset StartRow_photo=Min((PageNum_photo-1)*MaxRows_photo+1,Max(photo.RecordCount,1))>
<cfset EndRow_photo=Min(StartRow_photo+MaxRows_photo-1,photo.RecordCount)>
<cfset TotalPages_photo=Ceiling(photo.RecordCount/MaxRows_photo)>
 
<cfoutput query="photo">
       <tr><th scope="col"><img src="../mymobi/photos/m#vmemberid#/#photo.filename#" width="250"/></th></tr>

There are no tags in upper snippet that can be candidate for locking the image file on the disk.
I have no idea where to look next.
Only idea I have would be to look again at the image upload process for any conflicts...

04.15.2008 at 08:27AM PDT, ID: 21359549

sonicimpulse:

This only happens if the user is loged in and views there own pictures. If a users thats views the image does not log in to the site the image is not locked.
