Publications not sent to File System

Windows Server 2008 R2
XI 3.1 SP3

We are having a problem very similar to the one in the topic below in that we cannot get our publications to distribute to a file system. We have setup this server identical to our dev box which is working fine so we are very puzzled. We have the following configs:

-SIA running as same user set in publication destination
-Able to map a drive to destination file system, create a new file, etc.
-Desktop Intelligence, Publication and Destination job servers all set for File System

When we run the publication is says success, but the files never make it to the destination. So far we have tried changing the destination to the local file system, and tried setting all other job servers destinations to file system and retyping the passwords for the SIA account and for the publications but none of these have helped, any ideas?

I had a similar issue too however it was related to the program object which wasn’t able to generate the output file. It turned out that the Windows account didn’t have rights to write to the disk.
