Hi ,
   I have an Web application which can be used for downloading tools and patches . This 
application gets tools and patch files in  "zip" format  and gives to  users.   
I am using squid server to cache the zip files , so that next time user looks for same 
zip file, it can be downloaded from squid cache.  Now I am facing a problem like , I want 
to remove individual  zip file from squid cache. I tried to achieve this by using -m 
PURGE  option in squidclient. I have added permissions in squid conf . But I am always 
getting a 404 Not Found , but right after executing this command , if I try to download 
the same file , I am getting a TCP_HIT also , that means file is till in cache. Could 
some body tell me what's wrong on my side.

I tried different options like giving absolute URL of that file
./squidclient -m PURGE ftp://[EMAIL PROTECTED]/tools/patches/myfile.zip


Only EXACT same URL the user used to request it will PURGE. There may be others things like Vary: header needed also, but with FTP mid-squid translation of the protocol its anybodies guess.


and /squidclient -m PURGE  *zip  etc....

But I am always getting 404 , like below

HTTP/1.0 404 Not Found
Server: squid/2.5.STABLE7
Mime-Version: 1.0
Date: Wed, 23 Jul 2008 21:55:58 GMT
