Do you have anything running on the target server that could be locking files during the deployment process? For instance, the MS indexing service tends to grab locks on files, including the temporary ones that OD creates during the deployment transaction.

Best practice is to disable such apps (e.g., using DNR) during the deployment process.

Actually the proceeding problem seems to be doing a deployment for the very first time over existing data. Comparisons work great but actually writing over the data fails. When I delete all the data from the directory on other boxes and deploy it works perfect. But I would rather not delete or move production data unless there is no other option. Have others found issues with deploying over legacy data on initial deploys?

So I've resolved the issue, turns out the original data I was trying to deploy over was loaded by cdrom. Well as some of you know if this is the case the darn files are read only. Obviously I changed that and now it's working flawlessly.
