Обсуждение: wiki page not updating
Hi, I tried to edit http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Events to add PgDay Ecuador 2012 but i can only see the modification when i'm logged in. When i logout i see the previous version of the page. The same happened when editing https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/PGDay_Ecuador_2012 to add information about the event. any idea? -- Jaime Casanova www.2ndQuadrant.com Professional PostgreSQL: Soporte 24x7 y capacitación

FWIW, I've seen this type of behavior repeatedly. I think the wiki webserver is allowing the browser to cache the old copy of the page. If you don't have it in cache to start with, or after the cache copy has expired, you won't see any inconsistency. There was a thread about this awhile back which suggested that the problem was http: vs https:, ie if you first visit a page non-secured, and then log in, the server switches you to https: but the browser doesn't realize that's the same as the http: page. I tried to address that by changing all my wiki bookmarks to https:, but I think I've still seen the behavior since then. regards, tom lane
