| I'm using sql server 2005 and visual studio 2008. My sql server management studio software that came with sql server was not working correctly, for some reason it would not allow me to access the folder that my database that I wanted to "manage" was in. So, I uninstalled sql server 2005 and all (or so I think) of its components. Mind you, that the sql server 2005 that was installed was bundled with vs2008. I re-download sql server 2005 express from microsoft and install it, the management studio works fine and lets me edit my database unlike it did before. The problem now is everytime that I try and build my project, it gives me this error:"Problem generating manifest. The process cannot access the file 'database.mdf' because it is being used by another process." I shut everything off, restarted...same problem. I'm guessing its because when I reinstalled sql server, and now maybe there are two instances of sql server and something got screwed up within that.What can I do to fix that? |
