The admin app now uses response.static_version so your solution is not the most optimal one. If you need a quick fix, I suggest deleting or commenting out the line 48 from current applications/admin/models/0.py, rather than moving the files:
https://github.com/web2py/web2py/blob/master/applications/admin/models/0.py#L48 But a proper fix would be to configure your web server to allow this kind of static files versioning.
