I have a .NET Windows Service that needs to run without interruption
for long periods of time (weeks or months). Everything works great
except that every once in a great while I get the following type of
exception when reading data from a file via XML Serialization:
System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not find file 'C:\WINDOWS\TEMP
\muodpwwm.dll'. (see rest of call stack below).
The problem is that the serialization works for hours, but once I get
this error it fails on every subsequent attempt. The standard answer
I've found is to give my service account read/write on Windows\TEMP.
But it already has that so something else is causing this. Also, I'm
serializing the same type every time, so it is not an issue of the
type having inherent serialization issues.
here's the kicker, I've tried to precompile a serialization assembly
using SGEN.exe, which will create a compield assembly used to
serialize your types instead of compiling one on the fly. But the
runtime does not seem to be using it. For example, if the assembly
that has my types is Foo.Bar.dll then I've generated
Foo.Bar.XmlSerializers.dll and placed it in the same directory.
But my app still seems to be compiling the serialization DLLs on the
fly. The docs for this are really thin. Is there something else I
needto be doing to make sure the my precompiled serialization assembly
is used?
