MSM internal cache not getting updated on publishers

[Peter_Puzanovs]

Hi,

MSM has got an internal cache accessible on the /libs/wcm/msm/content/commands/servercaches.conf

This cache does not get updated when Author cache get's updates and cached results are not send to publishers(publisher cache get's invalidated only after restart)

To refresh the cache I can send curl -u love:cache-X POST --data "cmd=flush" http://localhost:4503/libs/wcm/msm/content/commands/servercaches.conf

The docs: http://dev.day.com/docs/en/cq/current/administering/multi_site_manager.html are quite silent about caching unfortunatly, could you provide more info on how they work ?

Is there a check box that would allow to automatically invalidate the caches in the publishers without the need to send curl or restart?

Thanks,

Peter

This sounds like a bug -- the publisher MSM cache should be updated without having to run these CURL commands (nice workaround). Can you please open a ticket here:

AFAIK servercaches list all cached LiveCopies & ideally be used for debugging. It should be deprecated. Rather than document fix it should be removed.  For now the workaround as you mentioned to make curl request or restart the msm bundle.

Scott, could you or someone please update the docs about the caches(in most places) ?

It would make sense to have more then 5 sentences in the docs for developers
