CMS Made Simple Forums

Hello.

I have this strange problem with my CMSMS installation. In short:

Every time I make a change to either a template/stylesheet or a page, this works fine and the change is immediately visible on the website. However, the next change I make, is not.

This is definitely a cache/buffer problem imo, because when I clear the cache after change #2, it works and the change is visible.

I have disabled the "browser buffer" by setting the time to 0. The clear server buffer time is also set to 0. I have disabled buffering on all of my pages. Permissions on cache and templates_c are ok.

This is the system info:

I did use the search on both this forum (cache problem/buffer problem) and google but could not find someone having this same problem.

Thanks very much in advance for any help.

Curious. Have you eliminated your browser as a potential source for this problem? If not, there are a couple of things you could try:
1. Try another browser

2. Using existing browser:
- Restore CMSMS cache settings to default (enable caching)
- Empty browser cache
- Make change to site
- View in browser
- Empty browser cache again
- Make another chance to site
- View in browser

If either of these "fixes" the problem, there may be something off with your browser settings/preferences.

If you've already tried this, then you can look into the following:
- Server error logs, for problems writing to the cache directories
- Server error logs, for any transient problems connecting to the database

Hope that helps.

Hi,

Thanks for replying. The browser is not the problem here, I am afraid. I have used multiple browsers (5) and multiple computers in different networks even. It really seems to be a server problem.

Unfortunately, I just found out I have not got access to the server logs. Is there anything else I can perhaps check/try? Will contact the hosting provider about the logs.

Is is possible to disable any buffering/caching on CMSMS? We're talking about a small site with low traffic so that would be a nice "solution".
