Hi Amos,
Thanks a lot for your help . I used "ftp://test123@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/tools/patches/myfile.zip"; URL because in squid log , I am seeing this
1216310397.416 9508 127.0.0.1 TCP_HIT/200 6500407 GET ftp://test123@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/tools/patches/myfile.zip - NONE/- application/zip .
that's the reason why I used the above url in PURGE . From web application. it's a POST request which is translated by web application to ftp request.
I am sorry that I didn't understand what you are referring by "others things like Vary: header needed also, but with FTP mid-squid translation of the protocol its anybodies guess" , could you please explain this .
I know for HTTP object they have a Vary: and ETag: header which also
needs to match exactly on PURGE. Squid generates the HTTP headers for
FTP objects since they come from the FTP server without any. I don't
know offhand what squid adds that may prevent the PURGE. But its
something else to look into anyway.
Amos
Thanks & Regards

Hi ,
I have an Web application which can be used for
downloading tools and patches . This application gets tools
and patch files in "zip" format and gives to
users. I am using squid server to cache the zip files , so
that next time user looks for same zip file, it can be
downloaded from squid cache. Now I am facing a problem like
, I want to remove individual zip file from squid cache. I
tried to achieve this by using -m PURGE option in
squidclient. I have added permissions in squid conf . But I
am always getting a 404 Not Found , but right after
executing this command , if I try to download the same file
, I am getting a TCP_HIT also , that means file is till in
cache. Could some body tell me what's wrong on my side.
I tried different options like giving absolute URL of
that file
./squidclient -m PURGE
ftp://test123@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/tools/patches/myfile.zip
Only EXACT same URL the user used to request it will PURGE.
There may be
others things like Vary: header needed also, but with FTP
mid-squid
translation of the protocol its anybodies guess.
and /squidclient -m PURGE *zip etc....
But I am always getting 404 , like below
HTTP/1.0 404 Not Found
Server: squid/2.5.STABLE7
Mime-Version: 1.0
Date: Wed, 23 Jul 2008 21:55:58 GMT

Could you please help me to fix this issue .
