Apache Cacheing issue
 
I am coming across a weired issue which is not getting resolved.

The issue is :

Whatever I put on the apache server, the server caches everything.


the pages are being cached such that even if they are changed, the server stills shows the cached version.


The above mentioned URL is one example of such tries by me.

Under such circumstances I can not be sure that any web development is correct or not. and initially I have kept on trying to work on files in order to make them work fine. Upon identification of this issue I have taken following measures to tackle with it.

1. Disable cache module of apache.

2. Disable disk cache module of apache.

3. Clear my browser history(cache/temp downloaded files) repeatedly to get around with this issue.

4. Disable any network cacheing on our side.

Usually taking these measures has been solving the issue in our past experiences. But this time i believe I am unable to help it by ourselves. because I have been unable to disable any cacheing which i think is being done at system level.


Kindly help me on this issues.
Many Thanks in advance.

Are you sure you're not using a proxy to access apache?
apache by default does not cache pages.

AFAIK, point 3 above is the culprit. The browser is responsible for caching pages and not Apache.
You can check the access.log file for the web site in question and see if web server is getting a hit after the 2nd and subsequent access to the web site.
