Hi Mike

This is most likely a permission issue. Have you double checked that permissions for the network service and iusr has been set correctly? You can also just add the iis_iusrs group since both the mentions users are a part of this group.

On another note I will recommend that you edit your files outside of Umbraco using a proper editor like Sublime text or visual studio.

Hope this helps.

I don't think that is it.  I create a unique user for each website on my server, and that user has full permissions on the entire doc root.  That user is also who the app pool runs as.  I have been deploying Umbraco since thusly since 4.0.1 and have never had an issue before.  It must be something else.

And yes, I agree on the external editor thing... I use Dreamweaver for now (I use a Mac).  It's just friggin weird and my clients want to be able to see the coding.

Hi Mike

Sometimes it's worth to check even though one does not think that it's it - I've seen a lot of weird stuff in the years I've been in this business. So I think it's worthwhile double checking it.

It could also be a bug in Umbraco - and since you're running 6.0.3, which is vulnerable due to some newly found security issues I will urge you to upgrade to 6.0.5 where the issues have been fixed so you have a secure site. You can read more about the issues here http://umbraco.com/follow-us/blog-archive/2013/5/1/security-update-two-major-vulnerabilities-found.aspx

Perhaps this upgrade could also fix the issue you're dealing with right now.

Hope this helps.

As I stated, I create a unique user for each site I deploy.  I have verified that this user has full access to every single file in the document root.  Unless something has changed and I actually need to add the generic accounts to the permissions, it is not a permissons issue.  Not trying to argue, I appreciate the help.  I just know the app pool user has full rights.

I will try the upgrade to 6.0.5 as soon as I can built time into the workflow, hopefully that will resolve the issue.

Thanks again guys!

I think I figured it out...

I think it has somethign to do with my generic rewrite rule.  All these sites are rebuilds of existing sites, so we go in and add a bunch of rewrite rules.  I just added rules to another site today and all of a sudden they are reporting the same problem.  I commented out the generic rewrite, restarted the app pool and I see code again.

Here is the rewrite rule I think is causing it.  What did I do wrong?

    <add name="catchAll_html"
      redirect="Domain"
      ignoreCase="true" rewriteUrlParameter="IncludeQueryStringForRewrite"
      virtualUrl="/(.*).html"
      redirectMode="Permanent"
      destinationUrl="/" />

Thanks guys!
