I appreciate the work you are doing to track this down, because
all I can do from my end is come up with ideas.

Here's one:  Put the following line in exiftool just before it dies
on the rename error (this will print the actual error message):

Code:

print "The error is: $!\n";

OK, thanks.  This confirms my initial suspicions.  I think maybe
the thing to try now is to disable all of your virus protection to
see if it is causing the problem.  Unfortunately I'm not an expert
in Windows permissions, so hopefully you or someone else
reading this forum will have some more ideas here.

Ah thanx for all your help thats first!

as i mentioned before i allready tought i tried to shut down all my firewals and scanners though...

The Norman Antivirus i thought to have stopped by selecting , stop on access scanning, as that is the only option available.

But i thought ill go a little bit further now and stopped all the norman av services in windows and restarted.

and guess what the problem does not exist anmore

Now ill be busy to solve the norman problem as i do like it and all virusprograms have some kine of problems.....

Thanx again for thinking with me and i know now a lot more about perl then i did before!

Excellent.

Please post your solution here if you figure out how
to configure Norton (Norman?) Antivirus to solve this conflict.

I have tried to take active scan away from the directory the files are in with no solution. even stopping activescan completely did not help.

I sent an email to Norman (not norton) with the problem explained so waiting for an answer from that.

In the meantime im running AVG antivirus and everything works fine.  
If anything comes from norman ill post it here.
