BUG: Analyze Always Updates aaaaaaaa.cnt (171350)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Visual SourceSafe for Windows 4.0a
- Microsoft Visual SourceSafe for Windows 5.0
- Microsoft Visual SourceSafe for Windows 6.0
This article was previously published under Q171350 SUMMARY
Analyze will always update the value of the file aaaaaaaa.cnt, even if you
run it without -f. Visual SourceSafe uses this file to determine the next
physical file to be created in the database. If a file is accidentally
copied into one of the database subdirectories and Analyze is run on the
database, aaaaaaaa.cnt may be set to an abnormally large value. If Analyze
returns an "unable to create filemapping for database" error, you should
check aaaaaaaa.cnt and you may need to reset it. You should also check the
subdirectories of the data directory for a file that does not belong there.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products
listed at the beginning of this article.
