Tridion New UI Preview Site is not reflecting with the changes unless pulished

I have new UI setup and noticing that when ever I update a page it is not refreshing with the updated changes. I do not see either the page_{sessionId/GUID}.aspx created either.

Checked the session preview DB and I see the changes in PAGE_CONTENT table with new rendered content, so seems like session preview is working fine but the Preview site is not able to get the changes and refresh the UI.

I have checked all the preview handlers and mappings for .aspx and made sure they are correct in web.config. Any thoughts on why the preview site not showing up the changes?

I have the session preview DB setup in cd_storage_conf.xml.

<StorageBindings>
  <Bundle src="preview_dao_bundle.xml"/>
</StorageBindings>
<Wrappers>
  <Wrapper Name="SessionWrapper">
    <Timeout>120000</Timeout>
    <Storage Type="persistence" Id="db-session-webservice" dialect="MSSQL"
             Class="com.tridion.storage.persistence.JPADAOFactory">
      <Pool Type="jdbc" Size="5" MonitorInterval="60" 
            IdleTimeout="120" CheckoutTimeout="120" />
      <DataSource Class="com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDataSource">
        <Property Name="serverName" Value="localhost" />

        <Property Name="user" Value="usr" />
        <Property Name="password" Value="pwd" />
      </DataSource>
    </Storage>
  </Wrapper>
</Wrappers>

PageHandler - The session wrappers are correctly installed.

Any thoughts/pointers on what might be going wrong...? (sorry for the long post)

After the "The session wrappers are correctly installed." message, once I make a change I get a LOT of feedback on my logs (in debug). This is the short version...

And it then loads with the correct updates.

I don't see anything wrong with the config you posted, so here's my config for the cd_ambient_conf.xml;

<Configuration xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" Version="6.1" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="schemas/cd_ambient_conf.xsd">
  <Cartridges>
    <Cartridge File="cd_webservice_preview_cartridge.xml"/>
    <Cartridge File="footprint_cartridge_conf.xml"/>
  </Cartridges>
  <ClaimStoreProvider>com.tridion.siteedit.preview.PreviewClaimStoreProvider</ClaimStoreProvider>
</Configuration>

and cd_dynamic_conf:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Configuration Version="6.1"
               xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
               xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="schemas/cd_dynamic_conf.xsd">
    <URLMappings>
        <StaticMappings>
            <Publications>
                <Publication Id="5">
                    <Host Domain="localhost" Port="81" Protocol="http" Path=""/>
                </Publication>
            </Publications>
        </StaticMappings>
        <StorageMapping IdentifyPublicationByProperty="publicationUrl"/>
    </URLMappings>
    <TCDLEngine>
        <Renderer Class="com.tridion.tcdl.TCDLRenderer">
            <Properties>
                <Property Name="prop1" Value="value1"/>
                <Property Name="prop2" Value="value2"/>
            </Properties>
        </Renderer>
    </TCDLEngine>
</Configuration>

Hopefully this helps.

SOLUTION/FIX

Applying the new hotifx "CD_2011.1.1.81686" on preview application resolved the problem. Hotifx could be downloaded from https://www.sdltridionworld.com/downloads/hotfixes/SDL_Tridion_2011_SP1_1/index.aspx (login required)
