RE: [squid-users] Accelerator not Caching for specified times.

Just following up on this. I have not been able to solve this. I have
tried changing the cache time to lower values and the site caches for
the specified time. I start bringing the times up greater than 4 hours
and caching becomes irratic. I have it specified for 2 day as of right
now. It seems to caches for about 24-30 hours. There seems to be no
pattern to to the cache times.

Any help would be appreciated.

Subject: [squid-users] Accelerator not Caching for specified times.

Hello List,

I have a Acceleration mode squid server. I have noticed recently that
the squid box is not caching for the specified amount of time. I have a
site that gets changed very little so I have set the expiration times
very high(1 month). I go to the page where I have set up a dynamic
timestamp and the site is cached. I go back say 8 hours later and the
site has refreshed now showing the current time. I refresh the page and
it is cached, showing the previous timestamp. I can refresh the page in
say an hour and the old timestamp will still be there. This site is a
combination between static html pages and dynamic Cold Fusion pages. I
have included the pertinent information below. If you see anything that
looks misconfigured or is not working in the config file please let me
know.

Thanks everyone for your help.

AJ
