http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=25201 Provide Cache Purge operation Summary: Provide Cache Purge operation Product: Apache httpd-2.0 Version: 2.0.48 Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: Other Component: mod_cache AssignedTo: [email protected] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] We place Apache httpd 2.0 in front of our CMS product as a caching reverse proxy to enhance performance. While the cache properly works managing its cached resources there is currently no functionality for the CMS product to inform the proxy about changed content. I propose to enhance the mod_cache module to support a new configuration directive "CachePurgeMethod" with default "PURGE". When a request for such a method comes in the mod_cache handles it by trying to remove the indicated cache entry. If the cache entry exists, the .data and .header file is removed and the request is terminated with a OK/200 status. If no cache entry exists for the request URL, the request is terminated with a NOT_FOUND/404 status. This behaviour (method to purge a cache entry and the status codes for (un)successfully removal) is sketched after the PURGE method support of the squid cache. See http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/FAQ/FAQ-7.html#ss7.5 for short information. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
