Apache slow to update
|

| Hey, I'm using apache 2.0.58, and I'm new to web developing. I'm
running a server off my machine, but when changes are made to the
files, it takes a few hours until proper changes are noticed in the
directory. For example, I'm using a Java applet, but if I remove the
java applet, the page still runs fine - with the Java applet in it! Yet
the file where the Java applet is will not show up on the directory. Or
if I update a webpage, the old version is visible for a few hours - I
take it this isn't normal? Does anyone know what my issue may be? I'm
not using IIS, I've cleared out temporary internet files, any ideas?
Cheers,
Simon

| Java applets are usually rendered on the client side and not on the server.

| Thanks for your reply, much appreciated. In this situation I'm both the
server and the client (as it's just a local server hosted at
localhost), but it's the same with all files, such as html files as
well as .class files.
Just to clarify, if I have a webpage and i change the content of
that webpage, when I goto open it via the localhost directory, it
appears unchanged, although the date says it will have been changed. If
I create a new page though and write stuff in it, then it appears
instantly - it's as if there's some back log being created, thus my
attempt to clear temporary net files.
All help is very much appreciated.

| try hitting the refresh button on your browser, if that works then you
may just need to set IE to check for new content on every visit to the
site [
Tools
Internet Options
Temporary Internet Files
[
Settings
]
check "every visit to the page" and click apply - ok
restart IE and try again, failing that post your apache.conf file up
here so we check theres no problem in there.
