Description

Issue/Introduction

This article discusses the cause and some solutions to the "Sharing Violation" error when running a Statistica analysis.

Resolution

RESOLUTION 1

Check Windows Task Manager (click on Start | Run... and type in taskmgr.exe to launch)  to see if a Statistica session is hanging(statist.exe) as the spreadsheet may be left open by a hanging Statistica session.  If so, end the Statistica session in Task Manager. 

 

RESOLUTION 2

Or maybe the Citrix session is hanging with Statistica.  If so please terminate or kill the Citrix session and then have the user in question try again.
