Hey Chris, Once you set udcTimeout=1 on the URL, you'll also need to touch the file at issue so our caching software will think it has changed. You could also just touch the file and wait the default cache timeout (300 seconds) and then reload your page.
example URL: http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgTracks?udcTimeout=1&db=hg19 Brian Raney On Thu, Mar 15, 2012 at 1:17 PM, Luvina Guruvadoo <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Chris, > > You would need to insert the CGI variable /udcTimeout=1/ into the Genome > Browser URL, which is described in our track hub help page here: > http://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/help/hgTrackHubHelp.html#Debug > > Please contact us again at [email protected] if you have any further > questions. > > --- > Luvina Guruvadoo > UCSC Genome Bioinformatics Group > > On 3/15/2012 12:43 PM, Christopher Porter wrote: >> Managed to fix it by renaming the file and updating trackDb.txt with the >> new filename.
