You can consider turning off PERSISTENTRESTART= which will tell Witango to
not load values on startup. You will loose user sessions on restart if you
do this, however.

Or you can consider deleting the file(s) in the VariableCache folder after a
successful startup, this is where the variables are kept and the .dump file
is created on each proper shutdown.

Just FYI- your hypothesis of Witango loading an outdated cache file upon
crash is valid. I would carefully read through witangoevents.log to see if
that was actually the case or not. If it properly shutdown, the cache
should've been updated.

Subject: Witango-Talk: Domain scope variables and cache files

I use domain scoped variables (arrays) to cache frequently used select 
list values that change infrequently.  If I remember correctly, domain 
scoped variables are saved to a cache file when the server is shut down 
gracefully.  Is this correct?

If so, is there a way to update the cache without shutting down the 
server?  We recently had a problem where the domain scoped vars reverted 
to older values and can't think of any explanation except that the 
server may have hiccuped and restored the domain variables from an 
outdated cache.  I trap for empty domain var to know when to re-querying 
the DB to refresh domain variable.

Maybe I need to switch to application scope var so I can set a variable 
timeout?
