Lance, I was surprised that you reported that the Cache: max-age=0 forced a revalidation of the resource with the origin server. There is a BR in Bugzilla for this (actually there are several) for which I provided a patch against 2.0.59:
http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19441 >From memory there is at least one other RFC2616 compliance issue regarding the >no-cache request directive. The bottom line is that if you want to use mod_cache with 2.0 you are on your own. If you can you should migrate to 2.2.4 or 2.2.8 whenever it is released. If have run mod_cache 2.2.4 against a test suite of my own, and it passed all the tests that failed with 2.0. -ascs -----Message d'origine----- De : Campbell, Lance [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Envoyé : mardi 8 janvier 2008 19:32 À : users@httpd.apache.org Cc : [EMAIL PROTECTED] Objet : RE: [EMAIL PROTECTED] mod_disk_cache Joshua, I thought this was working but it is not. This is my sinario: 1) I have a Java servlet that serves up some content. I put a display in the code so I can confirm when it gets called. I also put some code in the servlet to display header parameters that it receives. 2) I clear my disk cache for apache. 3) I restart apache. 4) I hit the servlet through a browser. The log file shows that it was hit. I also notice that there is files in the apache disk cache. 5) I then hit the servlet again through a browser. Nothing comes through the log file. So the servlet never received the request but the page came up. So apache is caching the file. 6) I now trigger another servlet that sends the same URL that I put manually into the browser. This request has the parameter "Cache-Control: max-age=0" added to the header. The servlet I have been talking to shows that it receives a request. The header shows the following name value pairs: header name=Cache-Control header value=max-age=0 header name=pragma header value=no-cache header name=user-agent header value=Java/1.6.0_02 header name=host header value=qa.webtools.uiuc.edu header name=accept header value=text/html, image/gif, image/jpeg, *; q=.2, */*; q=.2 header name=connection header value=keep-alive header name=content-length header value=0 When I go to the original servlet again I find the content is still the cached content. It is as though the disk cache module let my request go on through but it did not delete/refresh the data. What should I do?

Just make an HTTP request to the server for the targeted URL with a "Cache-Control: max-age=0" header.
