I ran into a very strange webreports caching issue on 9.2.2.21
When querying a retrieved property for a computer via the webreports API, I get an old, out-of-date result. However, if go to the webreports site in my browser and navigate to that particular computer, the next time I run the webreports query, the data for that particular system is up-to-date. It only updates that specific system though, so other systems still have old data.
I assume this is some sort of caching issue, clicking “refresh cache” sometimes seems to help, but I am not sure why its not automatically refreshed. I had seen an error message in the webreports UI earlier in the day about a background thread dying. Maybe this prevented automatic cache refreshing?
I am sure restarting the webreports server will temporarily fix it, but I am not sure if the issue will pop up again and make my data stale again.
Has anyone else run into any issues like this before?
