I have about 80 user that go to WebGui every day (I love the program by the way). Its set as there Intranet home page.

    My problem is the Cache, User are reporting that the calender the is not changing the date and they are getting some images becouse of crupted cache.  Is there a way in WebGui or Apache to set the time to live on the cache data?

 

Thanks,

Jeff  Laughing

I would also like to know answer to this one, hopefully from someone more knowledegable about "ways of WebGUI".

I know that generally speaking there are three ways to set cache control rules for web site(s):
1) Via <meta> tags (<meta http-equiv="Expires"...>)
2) Programmatically by setting HTTP headers (CGI scripts etc.)
3) Through web server configuration files (httpd.conf for apache)

... and that using the third is usually the way most guaranteed to work (especially considering proxy servers).

What I am not sure is how WebGUI now fits into this three...

I beleive that WebGUI predating version 7 used settings that allowed setting different "cache times" for registered users and visitors (options "Cache Timeout" and "Cache Timeout (Visitors)" under "Display" tab), but as this caching scheme was dropped since then, do I presume right that one now controls only WebGUI's own (internal) precaching interval ("Cache Timeout" option under "Display" tab), which is unrelated to how browsers cache data?

Put in another, hopefully more sensible words, do I presume right that "Cache Timeout" option now controls only how often WebGUI prepares precached content?

Is there any option in WebGUI to employ point(s) 2) and/or 3) through it, or is one now supposed to "manually" add the required tags as assets's extra head elements and/or set them in httpd.conf?
