Geoff,
That was a very good lead... checking the AppPool worker processes...which we just now tried and it looks like our Worker Process in the app pool is currently set and running at 1. Unfortunately, the issue of not seeing changes published still exists. Although this is frustrating, greatly appreciate the lead... something to remember and take note of in the future.
When checking the Event viewer, we find this Issue/Error any time the admin tries to publish a change via the HTML Module, the event viewer throws the following error: InnerException: Deleted 0 files, however, some files are locked. Could not delete the following files:
This seems to be our root culprit keeping us from seeing the changes.
We went ahead validated that ASP.NET account had full permissions to DNN and found that the correct permissions were applied.
Still an issue with publishing changes. We see the change but when viewing and checking the site, we do not find content changes made. The changes are only view-able while logged in as web admin or host user.So far it appears the the InnerException issue is related to File Lock issues on our server with our DNN sites.
Or
Could this also be a File Lock Issue or Could this be an issue with IIS 8 and DNN 6.2.9? At this time we are not able to upgrade but want to be sure this is the issue before attempting an upgrade. Otherwise we could see the same issue from DNN rear its ugly head even after the upgrade.
Again, still searching for a solution and checking settings/permissions. "Files Locked.Could Not Delete" seems to be the issue we are facing on Server 2012,SQL 2012 running IIS 8+
