and you probably should check the pragmas in the pages (expire, no-cache, etc). If they aren't present - you are screwed :-)
alternatively you could try to set your browser to get the page explicitely each time you request it (works with ie, firefox is dumb enough to ignore it, thinking it knows more about the actuallity of the page than you). Have you actually check with TamperData or LiveHttpHeaders if the browser really sends GET requests upon refresh? Leon On 1/3/07, david.delbecq <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
To make it short, tomcat does no caching of servlet / jsp output. Your webapp is at fault All tomcat does is handle the 'if-modified-since' header when serving static data (what is not served by a servlet or a jsp, mainly pictures, static html, css). The fact it goes back well when you restart tomcat points out it's a problem with you specific web application. As you have no knowledge of what is inside this web application, i suggest you check with the vendor and or developpers of that specific web application. If you want confirmation, just restart your webapplication without restarting tomcat (use the manager or lambda probe for that) reference: tomcat manager http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/manager-howto.html lambda probe http://www.lambdaprobe.org markx3 a écrit : > Hello, > > I have a server running Windows 2003 server SP1. 8 GB of RAM.
