Microsoft .Net Resource File stopped working all of a sudden

    I have a .net resource file which stopped working all of a sudden on the production environment. The resource (.resx) file had been working flawlessly for ages. This resource file resides within a website project and the resource strings are used to populate a menu. For some reason the resource strings stopped being returned. There was no error generated in the event log or any of our error logging databases. The last deployment to the website was well over 2 weeks ago. The issue was resolved by restarting the website but obviously we would like to get to the root of the problem and resolve it without having to resort to restarting the website each time. Has anybody experienced this problem before?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated

    Well its unlikely it was the contents resource file which caused the problem as this is basically just a xml file storing your strings.

    Without any error logs its basically a needle in a haystack.

    Something might have put a read lock ok the file. Are you logging these failures?
