sounds like the recompile/copy is simply resetting the app, or rather
restarting it.
What OS? 2003? try restarting the app pool if it is, just to see if that
fixes it.
There may be something with connections, pooling, not closing, etc, that may
be the source as well.
You say you dont get any error at all though huh? are you doing any
overriding to stop the error from showing?
