Be sure to pass -v because, since rsync 2.6.7, --dry-run no longer
implies it:

If that isn't the problem, please post your rsync command line and the
paths of the files that should be reported as "deleting" but aren't.

In what way did --delete-before not work?  Please post your command line
and any error messages you got.
