Which version did you upgrade from? At what point in the build does it typically lock up? For instance, does it always hang on an action that runs an external program? Can you ZIP and send (to support@kinook.com) the .bld file and a build log file?

Generally we run them w/ GUI, and what we see when we RDP to the machine where the build is locked is that VBP is up and running, but the program window is white and does not respond.
Does building via the console app instead of the GUI make a difference?

Ironically we have 5 of these machines, and only 2 of them are experiencing the lockup issue (randomly), the other 3 have not.
Please ZIP and send the VBP Help | About | Install Info details for each of the machines (indicating which versions go with the good and problem machines).

We have seen a similar issue in the past, and that was resolved by a "stealth" update Kinook did. Ie the version was still 6.4, but they updated one of the DLLs to 6.4.0.1.
I don't recall us having fixed an issue similar to this (we did fix a hang issue with the Replace in File action that you reported in 2003, but not in an interim build [there was a workaround]), but we do sometimes patch the download (without a main version number change) to fix a problem reported by one user that isn't likely to affect other users. We haven't made any changes to resolve the problem you're reporting now, but you can try downloading and installing the latest build if you don't have it (see http://www.kinook.com/Forum/showthre...?threadid=3056 for details).

Do you have any additional software installed on the build box (anti-virus, anti-spyware, etc.)? What sort of hardware are you running on? Is there anything from VBP in the Event Viewer? If you can narrow the problem down to a reproducible case that we can build here, please ZIP and send it. Thanks
