I do not know why I am getting this error - I was uploading skins to this site yesterday without problems.

I discovered that in the upload - eventhough I was using the same process of increasing the version number for my skin package as I made changes and upload - that DNN 5.1.2 stoped deleting my older version.  I looked at the skins loaded and I had both version 1.7 and version 1.8 of the skin package. 

I deleted the oldest one by hand; and that was no easy task because I kept getting the message that it was in use (wouldn't be nice if it told you where it is being used!) 

Any ways got version 1.7 deleted and was able to upload again and have it maintain only one copy.  But now I am gun shy - why did the happen?  Will it happen again?  If it does and I am further along with this web site removing the skin from all of the pages and deleting will NOT be an option.  I think this is a serious bug in DNN 5.1.2 - any comments?

I just tried and I cannot reproduce your issue.

What skin did you use and was it an DNN 5 (with manifest) or a DNN 4 skin?

Hi Tom:

Unfortuatley I was able to reproduce this error and now I have a BIG mess on my hands.  DNN 5.1.2 with and 5.0 skin with a manifest. 

I now have two versions of my skin on my web site again and I am getting the error I posted in the orginal post in this thread.  Out of desperation I logged into my web host provider and replaced the skin.css and and the ascx file with my changes.  I went back to the web site and it still has the old files - yes I refreshed. It appears that DNN has locked onto the files.  I need to update this skin ASAP and this simply does not seem to be working. 

 

Here is my manifest:
