Apache serves old versions of files [closed]

问题

I am debugging js code on localhost and I need to prevent the caching of files by the browser. I can't use a timestamp appended to the url because it erases chrome debugger breakpoints.

Usually I don't have to refresh the cache, but everyone in a while I do. It is a large problem because I go searching elsewhere for the bugs. I added this code to apache some time ago:

    <IfModule mod_headers.c>
            Header add Expires "Sun, 19 Nov 1978 05:00:00 GMT"
            Header add Cache-Control "no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0"
    </IfModule>

Can someone explain why Apache would mistake a file for valid or provide some additions to the configuration code that could fix this once and for all?

Headers using the solution below:

<IfModule mod_expires.c>
  expiresActive On
  ExpiresDefault "access plus 1 seconds"
  ExpiresByType text/html "access plus 1 seconds"
  ExpiresByType text/javascript "access plus 1 seconds"
  ExpiresByType application/x-javascript "access plus 1 seconds"
</IfModule>

回答1:

When delivering static files, Apache sends an ETag header, which is something like a checksum of the file. The browser will cache the file and remember the ETag, which is sent with the next request.

If the file changes the browser ETag should differ and the webserver should resend, when the etag is equal, the webserver will respond with 304 Not Modified. The ETag mechanism has a higher priority than other cache headers.

To disable etags you can use apaches

FileETag None

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/en/mod/core.html#fileetag

Wikipedia has a nice article about the Etag header http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_ETag

Edit

This should be a waterproof configuration

FileETag None
<ifModule mod_headers.c>
    Header unset ETag
    Header set Cache-Control "max-age=0, no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate"
    Header set Pragma "no-cache"
    Header set Expires "Wed, 11 Jan 1984 05:00:00 GMT"
</ifModule>

Don't forget that configuration changes require a server restart to take effect.

sudo /etc/init.d/httpd restart

EDIT2

Wrap filesMatch around the configuration to disable caching for specific file extensions only

<filesMatch ".(php|js|css)$">
    FileETag None
    [..]
</filesMatch>

If i understand your requirement correctly you want the web browser to not remember anything about the webpage you are accessing and your apache web server should treat it like a fresh page request. You may first want to enable mod_expires and mod_headers , i use ubuntu so mine was

a2enmod headers && a2enmod expires && service apache2 restart

than you want to add below code to do minimum cache-control,

<IfModule mod_expires.c>
  expiresActive On
  ExpiresDefault "access plus 1 seconds"
  ExpiresByType text/html "access plus 1 seconds"
  ExpiresByType text/javascript "access plus 1 seconds"
  ExpiresByType application/x-javascript "access plus 1 seconds"
</IfModule>

If you are using firefox you can test this by installing/running Live Http header Plugin or if you are linux/unix you can run this request with curl -v your_url
