How long has the original installation been down? any signs of moisture? These are the questions that come to my mind. If the floor has been down for a long time, then paint on waterbarriers do work when choosing correct one and installed correctly.
An easy test for moisture or hydrostatic pressure is..... Tape or secure clear plastic sheeting down to substrate and check for condensation after 24hrs or longer
