I have the same problem, just upgraded (this morning) to 3.9.1 on Windows Server 2003. The “wp-content/uploads/2010/01” folder does exist, but it is empty.
jadebydesign – Confirmed, this does work. I copied the wp-cron.php and cron.php files from my 2.6 blogs to my 2.7 blogs. Since I am running on Windows Server 2003, I had to do an iisreset. After the reset, all blogs kicked of scheduled tasks and past scheduled tasks.
Thanks jadebydesign
I upgraded from 2.6 to 2.7 on three of my five WP sites. All the 2.7 upgrades are not scheduling. Even if I manually go to the wp-cron page, the scheduled posts and actions are not executed.
All schedules were working perfectly before the upgrade. The remaining two 2.6 sites are working perfectly.
I am running Windows Server 2003, with latest MySQL, and IIS.
I am having this same issue. Clean install of WordPress 2.6.5 on Windows Server 2003 (w/ IIS). I’m thinking maybe it’s a problem with running on IIS
