Portal 7.3 Theme Cache

[Former Member]

Hi

Im doing some manual look and feel changes in .css files (com.sap.portal.design.portaldesigndata/urdesigndata) are not reflecting in the portal. Im sure this is a portal cache problem as each time i restart the instance it refreshes every .CSS file.

How can i disable this type of cache?

All IViews Framework Cache propertys are properly configured so i think this is probably something related to LaF Service and not the framework itself.

This situation does not happen on 7.0 Portal.

Note: I have cleared browser cache and force browser to request new data every time

Where was the cache located, and how did you clear it?  I ran into a similar problem updating themes and the changes did not appear in the browser even after clearing the browser cache.

Thanks,

Owen

Sounds very much like an issue with the HTTP Provider cache; to be cleared on each node's (http provider) service (button "Clear Cache" in VA).

Hope it helps

Yes, clearing the HTTP Provider Cache fixed the display issue in IE, so thanks for that!  Unfortunately, it didn't fix it in Firefox.  Firefox's caching doesn't make sense a lot of times.
