SQL 2005 Merge Repl suddenly stopped working

Hello...

We have had Merge Replication working for the past few months (SQL 2005 to SQL Mobile) and suddenly today the replication URL that points to the SqlCESA30.DLL does not work. I have tried re-running the SQL Mobile virtual folder wizard a few times....resetting IIS and even a re-boot...and still the URL is not available.

Is there anything that might provide some clue as to why this has unexpectedly failed?

thanks for any help!

What is the symptom of the failure? Do you have any "access denied" or "page not found" errors?

The URL where the sqlcesa30.dll resides was coming back with a Page Not Found type of error.

I reset IIS, reboot the server and even ran the SQL Mobile Virtual Folder Wizard to change and then re-create the folder for the snapshots. Nothing worked. I went to sleep, checked it again the next day and it is suddenly working/available.

We think that it might have been some sort of network routing/DNS type of issue...but we cannot tell. At least it is working again.
