[thelist] IIS Not serving revised pages

[Ken Schaefer]

IIS itself may be caching the page.

In the webapplication's properties tab (in the IIS MMC Snapin), uncheck the
"Cache ISAPI Applications" checkbox, and restart the website if required.

Recheck this box as soon as possible, as you will take a performance hit
with it unchecked.

That said, I've never run into this problem on any recent Win2k machine
(only when Win2k first came out, and also on NT boxes). I suspect that it
either has something to do with having a low amount of memory on the
webserver -or- not having a recent service pack installed.

Cheers
Ken

do you
: have physical access to the box? what happens if you browse it locally on
the
: server?
: you can try playing with the content expires headers, but then you may
have to
: wait until the proxy clears itself....
:
: right click the site in IIS --> properties --> HTTP Headers
