Error FileAccessDenied (JET_errFileAccessDenied, Cannot access file, the file is locked or in use)

I am trying to deploy Raven DB to my site running .Net 4 in integrated mode (site was previously used to host ASP.Net MVC 3 site.

My configuration file is this:

<appSettings>
    <add key="Raven/DataDir" value="~\App_Data"/>
    <add key="Raven/AnonymousAccess" value="All"/>
  <add key="Raven/Port" value="80"/>
</appSettings>
<system.webServer>
    <handlers>
        <add name="All" path="*" verb="*"
                type="Raven.Web.ForwardToRavenRespondersFactory, Raven.Web"/>
    </handlers>
</system.webServer>

However, the exception I get is this:

**Error FileAccessDenied (JET_errFileAccessDenied, Cannot access file, the file is locked or in use)

I have contacted my host and have confirmation that I have read/write access to App_Data and I have also confirmed this myself by writing some code to create a file there.

My host hinted that my problem might be due to double initialisation of my datastore - whatever that means.

Can any of you point me towards a solution here?

UPDATE 2011-05-18 I am using RavenDB-Build-360 currently available at http://builds.hibernatingrhinos.com/download/2004 . I am using the installation instructions on http://ravendb.net/documentation/docs-deployment-iis for running it on IIS 7.5. But instead of using own local IIS, I am simply copying the content of the /Web-folder to my host . This means the /bin-folder, the web.config and the SilverLight XAP-file. So I am not able to debug my way through anything.

I have not noticed the first line (about WebDAV module) but I will check with my host ASAP.

How does Raven DB rely on this?

i had this exact same problem - my solution was to remove the default App Pool identity from 'ApplicationPoolIdentity' to an administrator account (such as myself for testing purposes). after a restart of the web site, this then worked.

I also ran into this problem and was unable to fix it with any of the solutions found on the web.

I ended up going into IIS, right-clicking my web app that uses raven, edit permissions.

Selected the Security tab, clicked NETWORK Service, then checked Full Control. Hit apply, everything started working again.

Bottom line: it turned out to be a permissions issue. I'm unsure why my permissions were changed, as all this was working a few days ago. Perhaps an IIS patch? I don't know. Whatever the case, make sure the Network Service has permission for your web app that uses raven. I gave full control to the Network Service, but you may get away with read/write control.
