SPWebApplication.Sites not returning all Sites in Sharepoint 2010

Question

I have a timer job, which scans all sites and all webs. When looping through SPWebApplication.Sites, ALL BUT ONE Sites are listed.

this is the code:

  foreach (SPWebApplication app in service.WebApplications)
                {
                    foreach (SPSite site in app.Sites)
                    {
                        // site missing here   
                        foreach (SPWeb web in site.AllWebs)
                        { // stuff here  }
                    }
                }

All Sites are shown in the central administration. Any idea?

What is the one that is missing? Do you have the correct permissions? What about if you wrap this code in a SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges block? — Steve B
I wrapped the inner part (after foreach web) into a RunWithElevatedPrivilegues This code is running in a JobDefinition. Should have the needed rights — Ole Albers
PLease try to wrap the outer loop in this block. One possible cause is that the app.Sites enumeration has not enough privileges. — Steve B
It was something completely different. A Dispose-Isue in the Site-Object that was loaded before :) — Ole Albers
Glad you find the solution. Please answer to your own question, in order to mark the question as answered. — Steve B

The problem was a missing web.Dispose() in the inner loop which made the code crash just before the site-collection I was looking for.

As Dispose-Errors can not be caught in catch() it looks like the code was running "normal"
