[7.901][BUG][FIXED] HTTP cache clear button does not work

Hi,
I am running firefox 3.6.3 on W7 64 bit. My son has been having trouble downloading a patch file. When he downloads it as part of a package the download fails, times out. When he downloads it as a standalone patch, it downloads correctly.
Why isn't he statisfied with the single download, because the game does not recognise it.
Looking at the download times looks like the patches are coming from the proxy cache, so I tried to clear the cache. No luck.

The attached file has copies of the http log, the last 2 entries being the relevant ones.

please take a look at the http.log. Are there lines that contain
[font="Courier New"]
... function="disk_cache_zap" file="diskcache.c" line="430" message="creating cache"
... function="disk_cache_zap" file="diskcache.c" line="450" message="rename: Permission denied"
[/font]

we found that one yesterday...

Hi,

[7.902]
The button to clear the cache doesn't appear to trigger the clear cache function.

Was this fixed?

Cheers,

Darren

Hi,
after investigating the log files which are a bit slow in updating I found I need to re-word my bug.

The http clear cache button does work, but does not indicate it has activated anything. The button state does not change. The log file indicates that the cache has been cleared.

Trying again tonight to see what happens in the log.

I had complained about it during closed beta

I guess everybody forgot about it somewhere down the line[;)]

Ooops. I guess this is my fault. I completely misunderstood that you meant the visual feedback of the button - we had real problems with clearing the cache at that time.

Now filed with Mantis ID 13392.

@Billybob: since the closed forum you linked to is not accessible by everyone (we wanted to start with a nice clean and fresh forum), you might confuse other visitors. I thus removed the link from your post. (Nevertheless, thank you very much for pointing me in the right direction).
