redis-win32-fxtestintegration's Issues

HostManager fails to start with "process is in use by another process" or "exit code 1" (cannot write config)

Basically the host manager is failing to see if Redis is already running.

Steps to reproduce (Method 1):

• Add a breakpoint to a test that uses RedisIntegration
• Start debugging
• At break point, kill the test process by hitting "stop" in Visual Studio
• Restart testing with or without debugging --> Boom: redis-server.exe has not been shut down by the host manager and the second run is throwing an error bc redis-server.exe is unexpectedly running.

Steps to reproduce (Method 2):
Assuming subject application relies on Redis, the process will have to be daemonized. If redis-server.exe is left running as a result of a similarly stopped debug session while outside of unit tests, the tests will fail to start for the same reason (process is in use / redis-server unexpectedly running).

If we were only concerned with Method 1, I'd suggest checking for the existence of redis-server.exe before trying to spin up a second copy (this is what my daemon process does), flush all, and move on. However, we risk flushing all cached data for the locally debugged application (Method 2).

The counter argument I see for this is the fact that cache data by nature is transient and this situation would either occur on a local dev box or a build server where we'd want all data flushed, so the point may be moot.

I can submit a pull request with a fix for this if you give me some guidance on how you'd prefer it to be addressed. Thanks!

Could not find a part of the path

I got the error below when calling var connectionInfo = RedisIntegration.HostManager.RunInstance();
I assume something went wrong when generating the temp path.

Could not find a part of the path C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\Temporary ASP.NET Files\api\052337a3\f6653c62\assembly\dl3\89911f30\af004d62_eef9cc01..........\packages\RedisIntegration.0.2.0.0\tools\64bit\redis-server.exe

Obsolete

Microsoft has got it's own package now.
Could you please remove yours so it does not cause confusion?
Thanks.
