Stupid exception: Device is not ready – System.IOException .net

-
When installing a Sitecore implementation from an development server environment to my laptop I ran into an absolutely stupid error. And it's great to have this kind of errors pop up from time to time even if you have been in the development world for so long and are still unable to fix it immediately. So, what error did I get? Device is not ready – System.IOException .net That is right... Nothing at all related to Sitecore. But then you start to doubt that as my stacktrace showed to Lucene [IOException: The device is not ready. ] System.IO.__Error.WinIOError(Int32 errorCode, String maybeFullPath) +1091 System.IO.Directory.InternalCreateDirectory(String fullPath, String path, Object dirSecurityObj, Boolean checkHost) +1413 System.IO.Directory.InternalCreateDirectoryHelper(String path, Boolean checkHost) +92 Sitecore.IO.FileUtil.EnsureFolder(String path) +128 Sitecore.ContentSearch.LuceneProvider.LuceneIndex.CreateDirectory(String folder) +100 Sitecore.Co...

During the last Sitecore User group session here in Belgium, Ryan Donovan was featured as the central speaker. The following two topics were on the agenda: Sitecore Commerce An in-depth information on 8.2 and 8.3 I was impressed by the drive behind Ryan and his team(s). It emphasized the drive that is pushing Sitecore forward. Sitecore is putting a lot of effort in producing well hardened and tested product releases that bring new features and rich applications. Sitecore Commerce Previous Sitecore commerce solutions were structured around either SCpbCS and SCpbMD. However, the vNext commerce product has been newly developed from the ground up. Previously, the commerce solution focussed itself around the architecture of Commerce Server to provide and API, manage the products and to derive the entire feature set from. With this Commerce vNext solution, Sitecore has set forward the aspiration to become one of the market leaders in commerce. The fist aim is to focu...
