SharePoint
Problem:
When I delete a Web Application from Central Administration, I cannot create a Web Application at the same address. I also see that the IIS folder does not disappear:
C:\inetpub\wwwroot\wss\VirtualDirectories\mySite443
I try to delete the folder by hand, but the following file is locked:
Microsoft.SP.WorkflowServices.ApplicationPages.dll
It give an error:
The process cannot access the file
‘C:\inetpub\wwwroot\wss\VirtualDirectories\mySite443\_app_bin\Microsoft.SP.WorkflowServices.ApplicationPages.dll’ because it is being used by another process
SharePoint Solution:
Some people suggest iisreset, but the process is actually locked by PowerShell with SP extensions.
Close all PowerShell and delete the file.
