Help with UNIX "File Open" Error
We have a script that runs and picks up some files to later be used in Oracle. Every now and again we get a ERROR 'filename' file is open We know for a fact the files are not open. The files are created early morning and not used until the next morning by the script. If we manually open the file then close it, the script will pick it up with no errors.


Anyone run into this issue? I am willing to post the script if need be.

Thanks,
Randy
