Re: ...being used by another process

Hi Ronnie,
 
It's best to try with the version you will be working with - but watch out
for mixing them
in your own projects. When not sure about any project, just remove all
nunit.*.dll
assemblies from the bin directories and start over. Remove any nunit
references
and re-create them pointing to the install you actually want to use.
 
Provided you don't have any mixed copies of NUnit assemblies, it works
equally
well when installed with the msi or executed directly from a
source-controlled
directory - just make sure all references are to the same copy of NUnit that
you will use to run the tests.
 
Charlie

Sorry Charlie I think I was getting frustrated and have confused myself.

The version I currently have is 2.4.1. This is controlled by source control,
so I have just copied an nunit folder from our central repository and am
running the gui from there.

Earlier today I had downloaded 2.4.7 and was trying with that. If you think
it would be better to download 2.4.7 again and remove the source controlled
version then I can do so.

The 2.4.1 version was downloaded by a colleague a while ago, but we haven't
really been using unit tests up to now. However I have a big project
starting soon so would like to try and get it sorted before then, through
the source controlled version or otherwise.

Thanks

Ronnie

Is 2.4.1 in the message a typo? If not, you appear to have multiple versions
of NUnit
mixed on your system. Multiple installs of NUnit may co-exist provided
copies of
the assemblies are not left around in out of the way places. Unfortunately,
Visual Studio has a habit of doing just that.

When I try to open NUnitTests.nunit in the GUI, I get the following error
message :

The message is a fairly generic one from .NET and can't be used to solve
any problems - the details count, particularly what "blah" is.
 
If you are unable to load an assemby that is designed to be loaded and run
independently, that's a problem we should try to solve. Only a few of the 
test assemblies that come with NUnit are intended to be run that way, so
it's not necessarily a problem that you can't run nunit.util.dll.
 
Were you able to run the NUnit verification tests after install? You get
them by loading NUnitTests.nunit, which provides the proper config
file for the individual assemblies.
 
If you are able to run the verification tests, then you are properly
installed and we need to get into the details of a particular project.

Hi 
 
Sorry for posting on a problem which has already been posted about, but I'm
getting that message "blah.dll is being used by another process", etc. 
 
I've tried removing all references to Nunit and reinstalling. Rereferencing
in my project, etc. 
 
I'm using version 2.4.7, by the way. 
 
There are a few dll files in the Nunit directory which I am able to open.
For example, I can open nunit.util.tests.dll, but when I run all tests on
this assembly, a large handful of the tests fail with that same message
"Could not load...etc...being used by another process" 
 
Can anyone please offer advice? 
 
Thanks 
 
Ronnie Mukherjee
