I'm having a problem viewing <http://freshmeat.net/> where the cached page dates from May 2004 and pressing reload in the web browser (Mozilla) doesn't cause wwwoffled to contact the server for a fresh version. I set log-level=debug in the config file, restarted wwwoffled and put it online, and pressed Reload in the browser. The output in /var/log/messages is:
Aug 15 13:48:25 Vigor10 wwwoffled: wwwoffled startup succeeded Aug 15 13:48:28 Vigor10 wwwoffled[7976]: WWWOFFLE Connection from host localhost .localdomain (127.0.0.1). Aug 15 13:48:28 Vigor10 wwwoffled[7976]: WWWOFFLE Online. Aug 15 13:48:37 Vigor10 wwwoffled[7976]: HTTP Proxy connection from host localho st.localdomain (127.0.0.1). Aug 15 13:48:37 Vigor10 wwwoffles[7983]: URL='http://freshmeat.net/'. Aug 15 13:48:37 Vigor10 wwwoffles[7983]: Cache Access Status='Cached Page Used'. Aug 15 13:48:37 Vigor10 wwwoffled[7976]: Forked wwwoffles -real (pid=7983). My config file is vanilla, apart from the following differences: - spool-dir = /var/spool/wwwoffle + spool-dir = /home/var_spool_wwwoffle - log-level = important + log-level = debug - request-changed = 10m + request-changed = -1 - request-redirection = no + request-redirection = yes - age = 4w + age = -1 - compress-age = -1 + compress-age = 0 The Reload button seems to work most of the time, although I did notice odd problems with other sites. This started when I upgraded to 2.8c, although I tried downgrading again to 2.8b and the problem was still there, so I don't know what really changed. Is this a bug in wwwoffled? I thought that pressing reload in the browser should always cause wwwoffle to contact the web server if it is online. -- Ed Avis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
