Re: Caching of websites - does it exist on SBS2003?

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Have him try hitting F5 (or the "refresh" button) to refresh the page. This
is what I normally do when updating a site to re-read the page and freshen
the IE cache. To avoid the issue you can turn off caching in the Internet
Options but it will slow things down.

When this person makes the changes, they do take effect immediately. If he
or
anyone else off site looks at the website the changes are there. Only if
this
person is at his work desktop, does he get a delay in seeing the changes.
He
will eventually see the changes but there is a delay. Somewhere the site
is
being cached. Resetting his browser did not help.

I am just going to have to get with him next week and see for myself.

Don't understand having only one client who can check the changes.

Say User 1 and User 2 go to web site.

User 1, the changer, changes something.

User 1 and User 2 log off the website, close their browser and reopen the
browser and navigate to the site.

Do either of them see the changes?

What if someone from outside the LAN, say a customer or supplier does the
same thing?

There is only one person on site doing the changes, so I have only him
as
my
reference point on this issue. I agree that his desktop is probably the
problen and have said as much, but in the spirit of diplomasy I told
him I
would ask the question. Also his new "web" person has been helping him
and
he
suggested it might be the server.

Thanks for the suggestion on the settings, I will pass it on.

Verify that c:\documents and settings\user\temporary internet files is
emptied?

In IE, open settings, view files - delete.

Set the cache to 0, close IE, open and set the cache to something
reasonable, such as 25 MB. I have seen this settings in the thousands
of
MB.

Recently one of my customers has switched over to a new website
provider
that
allows them to interactively make changes to their area on the site.
For
some
reason there is a great delay in seeing the changes take effect IF
they
are
at work where the SBS server is. If they are home on their own ISP
they
see
the changes take effect immediately.

I know if you have ISA installed, website caching is a feature that
can
be
turned on but ISA is not installed on this system. It is a 2 NIC sbs
setup
however, so all web traffic goes thru the server.

The person having this problem has cleared their browsers several
times,
but to no avail.
