Folks, I have this random problem where I xcopy deploy all of my app files
over to my Win2008 server box and the updated SL4 app doesn't appear, I get
the previous version.
I have spent hours over the previous months trying to figure this problem
out. I restart IIS, I even reboot, I delete the
Well I should have asked my cat, because I browsed to the SL4 app from the
outside world and it was the latest version. When browsing from my work
machine I see the old version. So I restart my localhost IIS and delete
temporary files in the browser, but it makes no difference. As an
administrator
It's because the browser is caching the app, and your IIS probably doesn't
set any cache expiry headers. Here's some info:

Hi Greg,

Interesting ... some solutions are browser specific, some need code and
maintenance. Adding the "Cache-Control: no-cache" header seems the easiest
by far, so I'll try it out at the app le

If that is your problem, if you clear the cache on the client machine and it
then downloads the new xap file then the fix for this (one I've used anyway)
is to append the modified date/time to the end of the url.
So basically when ever
hehe, re-read your email and you did say it was SL4 app, so yeah, its
probably what I said. :)

Ah didn't see this other thread.
If you use the last modified time of the xap file then you will download the
new version and if its updated then you automatically get the new one, but
don't download it every time (which would happen if the url was different on
every page load.)
you only want the
