1. Manually copy of your job database file to some other place to have a backup. 2. Try to delete the original file manually and then click the Save button in 24x7. 3. If this fails again check what you have in the registry for HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\SoftTree Technologies, Inc.\24x7 Scheduler\3.0\ScheduleFile key. Please keep us posted : Hi, : (Sorry for the long post.) : I keep getting this frustrating error: "Unable to write to job database : file. : File may be open by another instance : or locked by other programs. Save Failed!" : This started to happen after I used used : the Job Database Manager. : Here is what I did to try to remedy: 1. Made sure file was not marked read : only. : 2. Looked at the file properties, made sure "Everyone" : had "full control". Made sure current user (an administrator) had : all rights. : 3. Made sure no other 24x7 was running anywhere else. : 4. Rebooted machine. : 5. After reboot, the file loaded and started executing jobs. : 6. Tried to "save" and got same error. : 7. Tried to "Save As" and 24x7 wouldn't even let me save to another : file. : 8. Closed down 24x7 again. Made copy of the file via windows explorer. : Started 24x7, opened the copy of jobs database. Even the copy was giving : me the same problem. : I've never had any problems with this file before. : (I was able to save, and do all normal stuff.) : I'm stumped. : Robert
