Re: Can't Copy Busy File

What gives. I go into terminal and it shows with the same permissions
and ownership via the "ls -al" command as other files that copy. This
server has 1000s of .dwg files that copy fine.

The lsof command doesn't show the file in the list of files in use.

Restarting doesn't change anything.

I encountered a similar issue a few days ago, and it seems the file was given incorrect creator/type codes : the creator was MACs, and I can't remember the type (it wasn't FNDR). This happened after a crash, I think, and the Finder locked the file. I could otherwise copy it using cp.


So just compare the creator/type codes with known-working files using a tool like FileBuddy and apply the good creator and types to be able to copy the file again.
