Visual Studio Is Busy?
Pentium IV - Northwood 3.5 Ghz - I Gb of Ram. XP SP2 .. all current patches applied.
VS2005 RTM Team Suite
On occasion while debugging the IDE becomes nonresponsive and I receive a Bubble message informing me that "Visual Studio is busy waiting for an internal operation to complete - If you receive this message often, please inform Micorosoft"
After I receive this message the IDE never recovers. All I can do is to delete the process and restart it.
Any idea what's occurring?

I experience the same problem from time to time. No idea what causes it, but would like to know! VS2005 Pro Ed.

It just happened again !!!!!!!!!
That's the second time this morning......
It's happening consistently for me any time I try accessing a remote site. The site was working yesterday, but when I got in this morning, I am unable to access it via VS 2005. I can get in fine using 2003, though.
If I resolve the problem, I'll let you guys know what it was.
Hmm, sounds like a deadlock somewhere. My apologies for the nuisance! I'd like to get to the bottom of this. When you kill the process, is a report being sent to Microsoft? If so, chances are it will land on our plate fairly soon in the form of a bug, but we can be proactive and search for the report if we know it's there.

Yep Suddenly this afternoon I cannot open any projects . reports busy, the is dead. TOTALY useless now
Just started happening to me this afternoon. No clue why. HArd drive is really active. Dead in the water with this tool.
No report is being generated to Microsoft. It just goes back to the VWD program and lets me try to open any othe project, local, remote with the same error bubble. Takes about a minute to appear.
Renee I have had the same thing happen from time to time. I noticed it happens alot when I am using remote desktop.
Hi Ken and thank you.
I don't use the remote desktop.
To respond to other questions, YES, I make sure that microsoft receives those reports AND I've filed a bug report on this.
Also I've noticed that it is reliably repeatable with what is probably a type casting error and Access.
In other words,
Dim a as integer = table.row(1).item(1)
where table.row(1).item(1) contains string data AND I am stepping through it in the debugger will reliably invoke that problem and it is a SEVERE problem. It was happening to me all last week.
OK, stupid me. Between the time I left work and the time I got back the following morning, someone had deployed a .NET 1.1 web application to my server under the same application pool as my 2.0 application. No one bothered telling me about it. That was what was causing Visual Studio to hang when I tried opening my .NET 2.0 application. I switched out all applications on that app-pool to 2.0, and presto! Visual Studio 2005 is back to its highly productive, useful self.
Renee, thanks for the bug report. We'll be taking a look at it.

Hi Renee,
Could you provide complete repro code or the bug ID if you included the code into the bug report?
Thanks,
Aleksey Tsingauz, Developer, Microsoft Visual Basic.
Aleksy....
It's been a week. I'm working on another piece of code. Also know that although I know where this has occurred, the project is reasonanly large, like on the order of 8000 lines. As soon as I complete the current piece, I will see if I can reproduce it.
It wish I could have awakened you all last week.
SIDE note Mine is Visual Web Dev express...and as of now there is no way it opens a project without a login, repaint of the message page then the bubble message busy etc.
ReneeC may be onto something (or not) with the Data Access comment. Everything I write accesses a SQL server in one way or another using code. No grids, views,table adapters or anything like that.
I am not able to reproduce the problem, it seems totally random to me.
Carl
