Make sure that the properties-file has not been opened by the same application elsewhere (ensure that you close all streams in finally blocks).

Thanks for the quick reponse !<br />

Yes, No other application or a service or any instance of the same application are open. The system is rebooted. This is the first action taken ie to update the properties file and it fails.. <br />

Hi All,<br />
<br />
I am not sure why, on some m/cs properties.store() fail to update and store the file. The same code works only on some m/cs. All are windows os. The file is not read-only and there is no other application using it. Only String values are used for keys and values. Any input on occassions where the store() might fail would be greatly appreciated<br />

properties.store() fails occassionally

Java is a platform-independent, object-oriented programming language and run-time environment, designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible such that developers can write one set of code across all platforms using libraries. Most devices will not run Java natively, and require a run-time component to be installed in order to execute a Java program.
