Firefox/IE retrieve cached version of attachments

XMLWordPrintable

    • Type: Bug
    • Resolution: Fixed
    • Priority: High
    • 2.10
    • Affects Version/s: 2.0.1
    • Component/s: None
    • Environment:

      Tomcat 5.0.x
      Windows
      Firefox 1.5

      Steps to reproduce

      • Upload an attachment to Confluence
      • Download the attachment using its direct non-version-numbered link
      • Upload a new version of the attachment
      • Download the attachment using its direct non-version-numbered link

      Expected: The new version of the attachment is downloaded
      Actual: The browser returns the old version from its own cache

      Clearing the Firefox cache fixes the problem.

      Presumably, there's something wrong with the way we're doing Etag or If-Modified-Since, or we're erroneously setting an Expires: header (or whatever the HTTP equivalent is).
