[users@httpd] Override Apache Expires?
Hi!
it turned out that WebSphere 3.5 had a bug towards ExpiresByType.
We're now running a later version, so I can use the ExpiresByType directives
to obtain a better caching.
HOWEVER.
We run a webapplication. From time to time, we deply a whole new set of
code, with updated flash movies and .js
I wish to cash the flash movies and the .js
Suppose I cache it for a week. And I change the code, which I want to be
used everywhere the next morning, but still within the week cache. Is there
a way to override the expires settings???
Imho, there isn't. Expires are set client side, and my sniffer revealed no
activity towards the server when requesting pages with cached swf's. I
don't see how I can alter data that isn't submitted.
Am I right?? Is there a workaround? Or solution?
Thansk for listening :)
Koen

Right. This is controlled by the client. You may be able to come up with
some setting of Cache-Control that makes you more happy (see the HTTP/1.1
RFC), but I suggest an easy work-around: simply change the name of the
file. That guarentees that the client won't have it in cache.
Joshua.
