Cache of 26 MB

Hi,

My disk quota is 50M, but I've recieved a mail that I'm using 52M. When investigating how this is possible, I saw this:

-bash-2.05b$ du -h
26M ./docs/cache

So 50% of my usage is the cache. Is this normal? And if I disable caching for everything, will be cache be cleared?

XOOPS doesn't use the server's own cache folder, but has cache/ templates_c/ folders to store cached files. I don't know where the ./docs/cahce/ folder is from.

mod_wfchannel^f411942acf08e33682c548271d0af07f^db%3Awfchannel_index.html

are not made by Xoops?

/docs is the directory where XOOPS is installed btw.

Re: Cache of 26 MB

Yes they are - Herko was just confused that you have installed XOOPS in a directory called "docs"

If you go to Administration -> System Admin -> Preferences -> General Settings and just submit the form. That will clear the cached files (they will be regenerated later, naturally, but this way you will get rid of the cached files of pages that are no longer viewed)

I have a question regarding the cache.

When I set a module cache from some time value back to zero (to have a specific change appear immediately). There seems to be a delay of a few minutes during which it is impossible for me to access the site (although I can still access the admin section). What do you suppose accounts for that? Does the entire cache get recreated for all modules when a change is made, or only that of the changed module?

Thanks,
Eric
