If I'm not mistaken 'Sync' got introduced in 7.5.but I would think that it's a 7.5 Mid-Tier feature, not reliant on the server component.but that's just my expectation. I think that you MAY be experiencing an incompatibility between the MidTier version and the ARS version. Do you have any plans to upgrade to a supported version any time soon?....7.5 was quite stable for us.

Sorry for the confusion. :) Our OS is Win2003. I stopped Tomcat, deleted all the Cache files under the cache folder, renamed the viewstats.dat file and restarted Tomcat (like Tauf suggested). I'm finally able to see my changes. Made another test change on a form (added a field), flushed the cache, still can see the changes Ugh! I can't find the cachetemp directory only cache. Also should I rename the viewstats.dat file back to the original name? I was hoping that it would create a fresh new one when I restarted Tomcat. I don't have the Sync option on my configuration tool. Maybe because we are on 7.1 p7 for ARS? If I make a change to a form, would I be checking the Forms.data and FormFields.data files under cache to see when they update? Thanks!

You didn't mention the OS of your setup.but I'm not sure if it's relevant.I'm on Win2k3 for reference. Cache Persistence would make it so that a restart of Tomcat (You said Apache.don't know if you meant that, or if you meant Tomcat.because Tomcat would likely be your JSP engine) wouldn't 'clear your cache'..because of the persistence.if you are looking for a restart to clear the cache, you would need to disable cache persistence, in that manner everything would be stored in memory But.since you have the cache persistence enabled.I think you should be able to find the cache files on the MidTier server and see when they actually got updated after your update..that may give you a better idea of how long it's taking. Have you tried 'Sync' instead of 'Flush'?...I've heard problems with Sync.but not many.so I don't know if one will work better for you than another Just some things to try.

Lately, it's not working. We flush the cache, no changes. I restarted Apache, still don't see my changes. Delete all browsing history on my IE 8, still no changes. We have our cache settings Definition Change Check Interval (Seconds) set to 300 (I also have the perform check enabled). So after 5 minutes we should see the change (if our flush didn't work). I don't see my changes until the next DAY. What's getting "stuck?" Some more info - Prefetch is not enabled. Preload was enabled a couple of months ago, but I have turned it off. Enable Cache Persistence is enabled. We are using Midtier 7.6.04 SP1 with ARS 7.1 P7. Our Midtier server is separate than our ARS server.
