I am unable to understand this error.This error is not in the class that i am debugging . (Is it ?) The error is :

What could be the reasons i am getting this error ? The code is too lengthy to post. The compiler that i am using is Microsoft visual c++ 2010 express

EDIT:

    void HostelManager::guestMonitor() {
        system("cls");

        cout << "Name of the guest : "; // cin guest
        cin.ignore();
        getline( cin , guestName );

        cout << "\nWhom to meet : ";   // to whom the guest wants to meet
        cin.ignore();
        getline( cin , fullName ); 

        string pathGND = "d:/HostelManager/studentDetails/groundFloor/" + fullName + ".txt";
        string pathFST = "d:/HostelManager/studentDetails/firstFloor/" + fullName + ".txt";
        string pathSND = "d:/HostelManager/studentDetails/firstFloor/" + fullName + ".txt";
        ifstream checkStudentGND( pathGND );
        ifstream checkStudentFST( pathFST );
        ifstream checkStudentSND( pathSND );
        string x = "Floor";

        if( checkStudentGND ) {
            ifstream readRoom( pathGND );
            readRoom >> fullName >> fatherName >> permanentAddress >> postalAddress >> x >> roomNumberToBeAlloted_GND;
            int hisRoomNumber = roomNumberToBeAlloted_GND;
            readRoom.close();
            storeGuestData( hisRoomNumber , fullName );  // call to store guest data
        } else if( checkStudentFST ) {
            ifstream readRoom( checkStudentFST );
            readRoom >> fullName >> fatherName >> permanentAddress >> postalAddress >> x >> roomNumberToBeAlloted_FST;
            int hisRoomNumber = roomNumberToBeAlloted_FST;
            storeGuestData( hisRoomNumber , fullName );  // call to store guest data
        } else if( checkStudentSND ) {
            ifstream readRoom( checkStudentSND );
            readRoom >> fullName >> fatherName >> permanentAddress >> postalAddress >> x >> roomNumberToBeAlloted_SND;
            int hisRoomNumber = roomNumberToBeAlloted_SND;

        }
   }

The called function:

    void HostelManager::storeGuestData( int hisRoomNumber , string hisName ) {
        cout << "\nVisitor's Address : ";  // cin visitor address
        string visitorAddress;
        getline( cin , visitorAddress );

        cout << "\nRelation with the student : ";   // cin relation with student
        string relation;
        getline( cin , relation );

        cout << "\nEnter Month";    // cin enter month
        short month;
        cin >> month;

        cout << "\nEnter Date";    // cin enter date
        short date;
        cin >> date;

        cout << "\nYou can meet " << hisName << " in room number " << hisRoomNumber << endl ;

        string visitorPath = "d:/HostelManager/GuestMonitor/" + fullName + ".txt" ;
        ofstream guestEntry( visitorPath );
        guestEntry << "Name of Visitor : " << guestName << endl ;
        guestEntry << "To meet : " << fullName << endl ;
        guestEntry << "Address of visitor : " << visitorAddress << endl ;
        guestEntry << "Relation with the student : " << relation << endl ;
        guestEntry << "Month : " << month << endl ;
        guestEntry << "Date : " << date << endl ; 
        guestEntry.close();
        cout << "\n\n\n\nData successfully inserted";
    }

Data Members:

    private:
        string fullName;
        string fatherName;
        string permanentAddress;
        string postalAddress;
        int mobileNumbers[2][10];
        double percentageMarks;

The offending lines are,

ifstream readRoom( checkStudentFST ); 

and,

ifstream readRoom( checkStudentSND );  

where you are trying to copy an existing stream, instead of perhaps opening it with the file name.
