Thanks. I tried doing the following to test..
- Cleaned out my ivy cache and cleaned my project build
- Removed one of the jar entries from one ivy.xml in my repository
- Did a build
- Dependencies were downloaded, build failed because of missing jar
- Edited the ivy.xml in the repository to put the jar reference back in
- Changed the resolver in the project ivysettings.xml with checkmodified and
changingPattern like below
<filesystem name="shared" checkmodified="true" changingPattern=".*">
- Reran build
- Still failed. The additional jar was not downloaded.
What am I missing?

Take a look at the Cache Management section on the main concepts page:
http://ant.apache.org/ivy/history/latest-milestone/concept.html
Specifically, look at the subsection entitled "Change Management".

Subject: Refreshing ivy cache after changing a published version
Hi all,
I have an Ivy repository where we store all our 3rd party libraries. One of
these is a large C# UI component library that comprises 100+ DLLs. In reality
we only need about 10-15 of those DLLs but we sometimes need additional ones
added as we use new functionality. This isn't a version change as the version
of the library we use doesn't change, we just add additional DLLs to an
existing version. If I just drop the relevant DLLs in the repository area and
update the relevant ivy.xml.
But then when I try to build a project which depends on these new DLLs it fails
because it doesn't realise I have changed the contents of an existing version
(that version will already be in the local ivy cache) so it doesn't download
the new files from the repository.
Is there any setting/command I can use to force Ivy to do a check of the
ivy.xml descriptors in the repository and, if anything has changed, refresh
that library. We can do a clean of the ivy cache but it's a bit painful for
developers who connect over the VPN, can take quite a while to re-downloaded
everything.
I'm using ant 1.7.1 and ivy 2.1.0RC2.
Any suggestions appreciated.
Cheers.
Mike.
