Hi all I am setting up Apache to cache Plone sites following Limi's tutorial. Apache 2.0, Plone 2.1.2, windows platform. When I came up to decide what to cache, I also followed the tutorial, but I'm a little confused by the note about persisting cache manager associations. For files belonging to my own products, I provide the .metadata file on the filesystem, but what about standard plone view templates, like newsitem_view.pt? It does not look to me they have the cache entry in the .metadata file - and the http cache actually does not locate them - so should I customize them and then cache the custom version so it is not in the file system any longer?
Another question is, some of these sites have two skins, selectable by the anonymous users, for accessibility reasons (standard and revers colours). We are testing on two systems (both same platform, I suppose all configuration is the same but actually I'm not the server administrator) the caching setup, and what happens is, for the same site, on one of the systems once you select a skin, that one will be the active skin for all pages, while on the other system, I have to force a download (I mean Ctrl-F5 in IE) from the server for each page to get the selected skin (and it does not depend on the browser's cache, I tried to clear it or not to clear it, it is just the same behaviour). Is it so that the two systems have a different apache configuration? Also testing the speed for requests actually returns quite different timings on the two systems, so my guess is that actually they are not set up the same way. Anyway, is there anything I shold do with skins to get them working with caching? the reverse coloured skin is just set from the zmi, I have another custom directory with its own base_properties, logo.gif and ploneCustom.css, and that directory lies on top of the custom skin. thanks&bye Lucia _______________________________________________ Setup mailing list [email protected] http://lists.plone.org/mailman/listinfo/setup
