Please help with exception while reading SPWeb.Id immediately after OpenWep()

Question

I am collecting a list of sites and their id. The following code throws  a FileNotFoundExcetion but only when run at full speed.  when run in a debugger I can read the property if I pause briefly after the OpenWeb() Call.

SPWeb deptsite = site.OpenWeb(SiteURL);

ListItem["SiteId"] = deptsite.ID.ToString();

 Is there someting I should be calling to ensure the deptsite object is ready?

I can put a delay in the loop and it works but that is a hack that I wish to avoid.

Thanks,Matt.

 

Answer 1

Surprise, the Threaad.Sleep(10000) didnt work. 

I broke a golden rule here but it seems that this form of Re-Try works.

SPWeb deptsite = site.OpenWeb(SiteURL);

Try

{ListItem["SiteId"] = deptsite.ID.ToString();}

catch

{ListItem["SiteId"] = deptsite.ID.ToString();}

Maybe your server runs instable beacuse you don't dispose your object?

Try somthing like:

using(SPWeb web = site.OpenWeb(MyWeb))
{
    ListItem["item"] = web.ID.ToString();
}

I never needed a time out or try catch when looping through sites  yet.

Thanks, but I was using a "using" here is the full test function.
the output always writes the "Retry:" line to the console
<pre lang="x-c#">
  public void Run()
  {
   foreach (string s in SiteNames)
   {
    using (SPWeb w = site.AllWebs[s])
    {
     try
     {
      //The next line throws an exception but NOT when
      //stepping through with debugger     
      Console.WriteLine("Try:" + w.ID.ToString());
     }
     catch (Exception ex)
     {
      Console.WriteLine("Retry:" + w.ID.ToString());
     }
    }
   }//put a breakpoint on this line and the exception will happen on 
    //the writeline statement

   Console.ReadKey();
  }

I ran your code without any problems:
  public Program()
  {
   String[] SiteNames = new String[5]{"a","b","c","d","e"};
   using (SPSite site = new SPSite("http://MyUrl.be/sites/test_312"))
   {
    foreach (string s in SiteNames)
    {
     using (SPWeb w = site.AllWebs[s])
     {
      try
      {
       //The next line throws an exception but NOT when
       //stepping through with debugger  
       Console.WriteLine("Try:" + w.ID.ToString());
      }
      catch (Exception ex)
      {
       Console.WriteLine("Retry:" + w.ID.ToString());
      }
     }
    }//put a breakpoint on this line and the exception will happen on 
    //the writeline statemen
   }
  }

Answer 5

Are you saying that you get the console display of the form:

Try:guid

or

Retry:guid

 

Answer 6

Try:guid

so eveyrthing works as expected.
