I think i have the weird caching issue.I deleted them again the way you dscribed and double checked by refreshing.


Then i downloaded them again.


Here is the readout from the updatlist.


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>

- <updatelist version="1.0.0.0" generator="OVERDUE">

<file type="xml" localname="decalplugins.xml" remotename="http://decal.acdev.org/files/decalplugins.xml" version="" />

<file type="xml" localname="clientpatches.xml" remotename="http://decal.acdev.org/overdue/clientpatches.php" version="" />

<file type="xml" localname="memlocs.xml" remotename="http://update.decaldev.com/memlocs.2771.xml" version="" />

<file type="xml" localname="messages.xml" remotename="http://update.decaldev.com/messages.xml" version="" />

<file type="xml" localname="killbit.xml" remotename="http://update.decaldev.com/killbit.2771.xml" version="" />

</updatelist>

seems I have a caching problem as well. I tried deleting all xml files and re-updating. The result was this


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>

- <updatelist version="1.0.0.0" generator="OVERDUE">

<file type="xml" localname="decalplugins.xml" remotename="http://decal.acdev.org/files/decalplugins.xml" version="" />

<file type="xml" localname="clientpatches.xml" remotename="http://decal.acdev.org/overdue/clientpatches.php" version="" />

<file type="xml" localname="memlocs.xml" remotename="http://update.decaldev.com/memlocs.2771.xml" version="" />

<file type="xml" localname="messages.xml" remotename="http://update.decaldev.com/messages.xml" version="" />

<file type="xml" localname="killbit.xml" remotename="http://update.decaldev.com/killbit.2771.xml" version="" />

</updatelist>

Currently, if the XML I linked to is the same as the one you're getting (and incorrect) then you're getting cached versions and I don't know exactly how I can help you force a refresh since I don't know where the issue exactly would be (either on your machine or with your ISP).


Unfortunately, those are NOT the files currently on the server so there isn't a whole lot I can do to assist you.


Have you tried rebooting your computer and trying again? maybe clear your IE cache and see if it helps?

it *might* resolve itself overnight, but I can't guarantee anything.

whatever it was did seem to resolve itself "overnight"

Woke up and downloaded it fine.


Thanks for helping out Drak.

My guess would be that your ISP uses webpage caching to speed up some of it's traffic.


This is unfortunate, but sometimes necessary.


Best thing to do in these cases is to let the cache expire by not attempting to download the file over and over again. If it doesn't work the first time, give it a while and try again. Also you might want to consider asking your ISP to not cache webcontent. Not that it will make a difference however.
