Well, this is very unfortunate. Both url.purge and hash.purge are command line only, correct? Can you think of any way to purge all variants via a PURGE request with some vcl tricks? If not, then are there any plans to support proper variant purging in vcl? I realize this may be difficult problem -- Squid also only recently managed to fix variant purging. But it's a serious problem regardless. Ric _______________________________________________ varnish-misc mailing list [email protected] http://projects.linpro.no/mailman/listinfo/varnish-misc
