Download being cached?

Hi All,

I am mighty confused (maybe not too difficult) but I am trying to download a file which changes regularly. It gets pushed by another process to a folder on our BES webserver and from there the client should download it however, it seems to be caching the previous version somewhere. For example, at present the file on the webserver is 35Kb, the previous version was 32Kb.

The client runs its scheduled Fixlet and allow the timestamp is updated, suggesting the Fixlet ran, the file is still 32Kb.

The log reports:

At 16:55:49 +0100 - actionsite (http://FLBF01:52311/cgi-bin/bfgather.exe/actionsite)

Command succeeded dos del /F /Q /S “C:\Program Files (x86)\BigFix Enterprise\BES Client__BESData__Global__Cache\Downloads*.*” (fixlet 39339)

Command succeeded (Using download manager collected file) download http://FLBF01:52311/Uploads/crl/(cert)_0_CertStore.jceks (fixlet 39339)

At 16:55:50 +0100 - actionsite (http://FLBF01:52311/cgi-bin/bfgather.exe/actionsite)

Command succeeded dos move /y D:\dynamic\security_wan\CertStore.jceks D:\dynamic\security_wan\CertStore.old (fixlet 39339)

At 16:55:51 +0100 - actionsite (http://FLBF01:52311/cgi-bin/bfgather.exe/actionsite)

Command succeeded dos move /y __Download(cert)_0_CertStore.jceks D:\dynamic\security_wan\CertStore.jceks (fixlet 39339)

I’m am guessing “Using download manager collected file” is telling me something, but I don’t know what?

Thanks in advance,

Tim.

That is correct… The server and relays will cache downloads… You might consider looking at the “Action Regenerator”: http://support.bigfix.com/bes/misc/actionregenerator.html
