Multiple Hangs in version 7.0

[DougFarmer123]

I installed version 7.0 late last fall as I needed the VS 2008 capability. At the same time, I loaded VS 2008. Ever since then I have been experiencing two problems.

We run multiple (10) builds every night.

The first issue is that a file system step hangs with a "file in use" or "access denied" message. I cannot rule out our own network, but it is interesting this did not happen before. File system steps are like Delete Files, Copy Files, etc. Most of the time, the files in question are local (C:\) files, sometimes they are on a network drive.

The second issue is that when a step fails, Visual Build does not shut down. Sometimes, it runs the failure code, sometimes not. This is not consistent. Many times, when a step fails, it terminates OK. However, other times, I come in the next day to find it at the failure step and just not doing anything.

Has anyone else experienced anything like this?
