L.S.
We have a real nasty problem with users deleting channels with subchannels.
In short:
We added a 'Delete Channel' option to the user console, available to
Channel Managers. This works ok for channels without subchannels, and
cms nicely returns to the parent channel.
When users delete a channel with subchannels something weird happens.
The subchannels are deleted, but when cms returns to the parent channel
it doesn't display the content, but it returns with a 'The page cannot
be found' error. So, somehow the parent channel gets messed up when
deleting a subchannel, but only for a while - after a timespan of an
hour to a day the channel returns.
It sometimes helps to start Site Manager and access the channel, but not
always.. wild ideas welcome!

Thanks in advance,
Herman

P.S. the code for the 'Delete Channel' routine:
public string DeleteChannel(Channel thisChannel)
{
if (thisChannel != _cContext.RootChannel)
{
Channel returnChannel = thisChannel.Parent;
deleteChannelContent(thisChannel);
return returnChannel.Url + _
"&WBCMODE=PresentationUnpublished&wbc_purpose=Basic";
}
else
{
return thisChannel.Url + _
"&WBCMODE=PresentationUnpublished&wbc_purpose=Basic";
}
}

private void deleteChannelContent(Channel thisChannel)
{
try
{
foreach (Posting delposting in thisChannel.Postings)
{
delposting.Delete();
}
foreach (Channel subChannel in thisChannel.Channels)
{
deleteChannelContent(subChannel);
}
thisChannel.Delete();
_cContext.CommitAll();
}
catch
{
_cContext.RollbackAll();
throw;
}
}

Hi Herman,

please test if the problem is resolved if you do a Commit action after each
delete.

Cheers,
Stefan

Hello Stefan,
Just tried that (currentcontext.CommitAll after each delete), but alas..
same results.
