Yes to all except resource check interval. Will try shortening that. 



I have usually been able to just use Flush cache as well, but I've never 
modified an already existing overlay before, just created new ones. 



I thought that using the Internet Options | Delete did the cache flushing for 
IE ? 



I'd be happy to just see it work on dev:-)

Is your mid-tier set for development?  (in addition to Development Mode on the 
server) 

Definition Change Check Interval = 0 

Update Flashboard Def Interval = 0 

Resource check Interval = 300 

Perform Check and Enable Cache Persistence are both ON 

  

When I am doing development the only thing I normally need to do to get it live 
on the mid-tier (which is local to the AR Server) is Flush the Cache 

  

Sometimes, some browsers have to have their own cache flushed as well before 
they pick it up. 

  

Moving it into production is usually MUCH harder – often requiring multiple 
mid-tier cache flushes with shortened check intervals set (they are normally at 
3600, 0, and 86400 on my servers).  All of your problems will be with the 
caching.

Would like to find out if anyone else has experiened issues with using overlays 
where everything looks good in the admin tool, but the changes never make it to 
the mid tier. I've seen several posts about slow uptakes, but it doesn't seem 
to ever make it over. We had an overlay that had to be modified. I added a few 
fields which were not on the view, already on form, just not on view. There was 
a form overlay and a view overlay. Added a field overlay from the Objects not 
in view list before adding the field to the view. Added the field to the view 
and put it on a panel. Saved. Flushed cache, opened up the form, no change. 

  

Here are the steps I have tried to get the changes to appear: 

Flushed cache 

deleted browser cache 

restarted arserver 

blew away midtier/cache 

blew away tomcat/work/catalina/localhost 

deleted the overlay and started overlays from scratch 

took an original def of the form, imported with replace, started overlays from 
scratch 

replaced admin tool sp1 with sp2 

  

What am I missing here, can some kind soul point me in the right direction? 

  


ar.cfg = Overlay-mode = 1 

ARS/MidTier – 7.6.4 SP1 

SQL Server 2008 

Windows Server 2008 R2 

  

Thanks,
