FAQ 28: ADP--Error-Cannot create scratch file

Problem:

ADP test returns "Cannot create scratch file" error and refers to a file name.


Solution:

Scratch files are temporary work files that are created, deleted, and recreated each time you run a test. Once in awhile, if there is an error when running the test, the file can get "locked".

Options to try:

1) Reboot your workstation.
2) Delete the file that it is referring to. It is in the the NDM/SCRATCH directory on the network, or on the local drive, if ASC has been installed on a standalone machine.
