I am attempting to deploy my Windows Phone 8 app to my HTC 8X from Visual Studio 2012. I get this error:
Error 1 Error writing file
'%FOLDERID_SharedData%\PhoneTools\11.0\Install\{12b7fcb7-793b-4023-abeb-14a76d3f7447}\MyApp_Debug_AnyCPU.xap'.
Error 0x80072736: An operation was attempted on something that is not a socket.
0 0
The app is not currently installed on the device. Restarting Visual Studio and the phone do not fix the problem. If I deploy the app a second time from Visual Studio without restarting it, the error changes to simply:
Error 1 0x8974002F 0 0
I tried deleting the bin folder and rebuilding the solution. After doing this, the error changes to:
Error 1 This operation returned because the timeout period expired. 0 0
The phone is developer unlocked, the Windows Phone app is installed and connects to my phone. I have had no prior issues with deployment on my current computer. What is causing this issue?
I fixed this by restarting the computer. Any ideas as to the cause of this issue would still be welcome.
