How to check if IOException is Not-Enough-Disk-Space-Exception type?

You need to check the HResult and test against ERROR_DISK_FULL (0x70) and ERROR_HANDLE_DISK_FULL (0x27), which can be converted to HResults by OR‘ing with 0x80070000. For .Net Framework 4.5 and above, you can use the Exception.HResult property: static bool IsDiskFull(Exception ex) { const int HR_ERROR_HANDLE_DISK_FULL = unchecked((int)0x80070027); const int HR_ERROR_DISK_FULL = unchecked((int)0x80070070); return ex.HResult == HR_ERROR_HANDLE_DISK_FULL … Read more

Hadoop java.io.IOException: Mkdirs failed to create /some/path

I could call the web-service through a website project, but when reusing the same code in a test project I would get a WebException that contained this message. Adding the following line before making the call resolved the … Read more

IOException: The process cannot access the file ‘file path’ because it is being used by another process

What is the cause? The error message is pretty clear: you’re trying to access a file, and it’s not accessible because another process (or even the same process) is doing something with it (and it didn’t allow any sharing). Debugging It may be pretty easy to solve (or pretty hard to understand), depending on your … Read more
