handle is invalid error and profiles freezed

[lgarotta]

Hi,

we are encountering problems in syncronizing two folder's content.
These are the environment specifications:

1) Viceversa pro (Build 2014) and vvengine [1.1 (SN5)] are installed on a dedicated server;
2) The folders to syncronize are located on two web servers;
3) All the servers are windows 2003 std r2 sp2, updated with the last patches;
4) VVeengine runs under an administrator account with read and write permissions on both folders;
5) The folders and the subfolders are browsable from the replication server;
6) The folders size is, more or less, 80 GB and the files are approximatly 3 millions. For this reason we created 6 different profiles, one for every subfolder.
7) The network and the name resolution works fine.


The profiles are configured for syncronization, with the following options:

FOLDERS:
- source and target folder are indicated with the UNC path \\server\share\folder... (the lenght is under 256 characters);
COMPARISON:
- comparison method is "size and timestamp" with no options;
PERFORMANCE/BANDWITH:
- Process priority is idle;
- Buffer size is 65536;
ADVANCED SETTINGS:
- copy file even if timestamp changes after initial comparison;
- copy directly to destination file (do not use a temporary file);
- Try to copy files that are in use by other applications;
- Synchronize/backup/replicate files even if in conflict;

We are encountering a lot of "handle is invalid" errors, even if the folders are browsable from the replication server.

Moreover we noticed that, sometimes, the profiles seem freezed as no changes are detected. The viceversa compare founds many differences but the profile still doesn't run. If we run it manually, all the files are copied, deleted or modified.

We hope in your help in solving the problem.

Thank you and regards.

Did someone find any solution for this error ? We have the same problem and no solution yet !

I am having this same issue and it only started after upgrading to 2003 R2. Has anyone found a way around it? If we could at least have VV continue after the error I could get by for now....Otherwise our purchase of 6 licenses is pretty much useless at this point.
