This isnt a major issue for us. Basically I created 3 instances of the same umbraco installation (we wanted an installation for each exisiting site, instead of having 3 sites on 1 install) this has gone smoothly and while we had a bit of trouble getting umbraco to pick up that a different site was ordered to be the default home that was solved.
The issue we have is that one site refuses to empty the recyling bin. When you select it, umbraco hangs. At first i thought it was due to a higher node count, but leaving it didnt remove ANY items.
It could be a permissions issue on that installation, if the directory that stores the web service used by the empty recycle bin functionality does not have the right permissions it may well hang, so I'd start by checking your directory permissions.
I dont think its a permission issue, I encoutered alot of them when creating the multiple instances so i checked it. Also i forgot to mention that it deleted SOME of the files (after a lengthy "Move to content, delete one item in reclye bin").
Could it still be a permission issue? If so where should i check? (might be worth mentioning it only happens on one installation)
Failure to empty recycle bin
Hi All,
This isnt a major issue for us. Basically I created 3 instances of the same umbraco installation (we wanted an installation for each exisiting site, instead of having 3 sites on 1 install) this has gone smoothly and while we had a bit of trouble getting umbraco to pick up that a different site was ordered to be the default home that was solved.
The issue we have is that one site refuses to empty the recyling bin. When you select it, umbraco hangs. At first i thought it was due to a higher node count, but leaving it didnt remove ANY items.
Does anyone know why this could be?
Thanks
Alec
Hi Alec,

I have had this problem on multiple occasions. Please see the following thread for a solution.

Thanks Nik lead to some useful advice
I was finally able to empty the recycle bin by removing orphan nodes. See blog for details: http://blog.degree.no/2011/02/problems-with-recycle-bin-in-umbraco-no-document-exists-with-version-00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000/
Thanks for the link Njal, that solution worked for me. Is suspect that maybe the parent node was deleted before the children.
