I've searched the forum but I don't seem to be able to fix this problem. Content (from the content tree but als Document Types and content in the Media tree) seem to be randomly disappearing.
The umbraco.config file timestamp is equal to the last publish/republish site time. Next I've added NETWORK SERVICE and ISS_IUSRS to the folder and gave them all permissions. Content is still disappearing. Not all content but some. Also sometimes the content doesn't disappear from the content tree but the information entered in a RichTextBoxEditor is reverted one version back. For example first it contained "Here comes some text", then it's edited to "Actual Text" and displayed in the site after publishing, but after a restart the text is reverted back to "Here comes some text".
Any idea what could cause this? I'm using Umbraco installed with Microsoft Web Platform Installer on a Win 7 machine using IIS 7.5 express with an SQL CE db file.
I've unfortunaly had issues with this myself recently.
Is the site where you're experiencing this on a live site or are you still developing it? If so are you by any chance using webmatrix/IISExpress to run the website? If so then I suggest trying to run the site using IIS instead, which seemed to do the trick for me.
If the site is a live site then I'll suggest that you migrate to MSSQL since CE SQL should not be used for production sites.
I'm indeed using IISExpress to run the site. I'll try your suggestion by running it in IIS instead. And luckely I'm still developing it so it's not an issue on a live site. Thanks for your suggestion.
Ok, then I'm positive the problem will stop when you're using IIS instead of IIS express. I'm a bit frustrated that I can't seem to figure out why this data loss happens when using SQL CE...
By the way I'll also recommend that you migrate to MSSQL if you're going to do some heavy programming since it's much more stable. And for production I would recommend that you use MSSQL as well since it's faster and more stable.
Randomly disappearing content
Hi,

Any help appreciated.
