<SOLVED> Cache Issues

[jwbassman]

Hi Guys

Just moved my v1.2.5 CMSMS install over to my new hosting (Servage - using php5) and having got everything set up and working - paths to site root, admin, db etc - all seemed well, however I think I've got a problem with the cache - when I update my content in the admin area the changes don't take place on the site until I've emptied the CMSMC cache in site admin, global settings - trouble is I have to do this after every change or it won't show...

I've tried a clean install too as a test and have the same problem - is it something in the server settings, if so what should I be looking for or asking them to change?

I've read through quite a few posts but can't seem to find an answer - any help much appreciated...

Cheers

John

It sounds like you should check the file permissions of /tmp and the files and directories under it and make sure they are writeable by the web server.

hi tinhat

I've checked those files/folders and all are writable - that said I can't change the permissions on the contentcache.phpfile - currently 644 (user writable) - is this where the problem lies - is there a way to force the permissions on this file?

EDIT: managed to change the permissions - no joy, still the same problem

contentcache.phpfile  is cache, so you have to delete them!

/root/temp/cache/contentcache.php<---- is cache

try please and then report

Hi Nuno - thanks for the suggestion...

I treid that but I'm still having the same problem - I deleted the files as you suggested but that doesn't solve the problem - I still have to do a full site cache clear to see a simple text change refelected on the site...

I've posted a ticket with my hosting company to see if they can help...

provide us you link

Hi Nuno

My link to where?

my website is at http://www.gentgoddard.co.uk

is this what you need?

I've heard back from the hosting company who basically said to tell them what settings I need and they will try and sort it...

Thinking about this some more the only difference I can see between the instances of the CMSMS is the server environment - I've pretty much ruled out the folder/file permissions being the issue.

Thanks again for your interest in my problems...

Not really related to your problem, but for a genealogy site, you should look into PhpGedView:

http://www.phpgedview.net/

It should be possible to integrate it into CMSMS - they have a wiki with info regarding CMS Integration.

The site is displaying fine - but i still have the problem of needing to re cache the site via the cms after each change before it shows on the site...
