Thanks for responding to my question.That's a real pity, because that plugin is really helpful for all kinds of HTTP issues.I've since downloaded firefox. When I tried to install LiveHttpHeaders,it says that it's incompatible with the current version of firefox.
I still use Firefox 2, and there it works. I believe there is another similar plugin, but don't remember its name.If you feel like being a bit more adventurous, you could install perl on the machine where the browser runs, and then use the "lwp-request" program that comes with perl. It does the same as a browser, from the command-line, and there are plenty of options to display the HTTP headers circulating in one and the other direction. I always use that one, but there may be other programs, lighter to install, that offer similar capabilities. One advantage of lwp-request is that you can specify exactly which HTTP headers the client should send to the the server. For caching issues that is useful.
I started firefox without importing any history, bookmarks, etc from IE, but unfortunately, when I loaded the modified webpage, it displayed the old version.
Ok, then it's a real puzzle. The webserver runs on a virtual machine on the same
I do not quite understand how one of these implies the other, but at least it does not seem that you have a real proxy server in-between, which would be the second most-likely source of this kind of issue.physical machine as the browser. The virtual machine is networked via TCP. Between the browser and the server, there's a router, but the virtual server for Internet users is disabled. So, the only two playershere are the browser and the apache server.
More info ... I changed the style sheet, and reloaded the page. The access.log entry is: "GET /css/reports.css HTTP/1.1" \ 200 3964 "http://192.168.0.137/headerframe.html" "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Wind\ ows NT 5.1; en-GB; rv:1.9.0.5) Gecko/2008120122 Firefox/3.0.5" The file size of reports.css is: [paul@Develop:/var/www/css]l reports.css -rw-r--r-- 1 paul dev 3985 2008-12-22 09:36 reports.css So, it seems that apache is recognising that the content has beenmodified but is serving a cached version of the file.
On the face of it, it does not make any sense.If you ask directly for the stylesheet in the URL bar of the browser, and then save it to disk, which one is it and what size does it have ?
In your earlier post, you mentioned something about "htcacheclean". Do you have mod_cache active on the server ? If yes, can you turn it off ?
Do you have any further suggestions?
