Karim, I'm afraid you have to do that programmatically. We've done that in a project before with Apache 2.0 by knowing how Apache encodes URL for storing in internal cache directories, read it from: modules/cache_util.c: cache_hash(...)
Which is controlled using: CacheDirLevels XX CacheDirLength YY Apache directives. I believe you will write your own code that hashes the target URL like Apache does, and delete that file from the cache, call that code whenever you need to content is updated. And I don't think that would change for 2.2.X Apache, the addition of "htcacheclean" doesn't help in your case either. P.S. Look for Hossam Karim if you need the Java code, he is the one who did that.

I'm looking for a way to clear the cache from Apache for specific URLs. I'm using Apache to cache dynamic content that is served by Tomcat, and I would like to keep the content (age) high (e.g. 24 hours) but still to be able to clear the cache for specific pages when the content is updated. Is there a way to tell Apache to clear the cache for a specific list of URLs? Thanks, Karim ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Although the moon is smaller than the earth, it is farther away."
