BLOB Cache does not update on internet facing MOSS servers
Folks, We recently launched MOSS based internet facing site. In our production front end web servers we have an issue with content update. We successfully did content deployment but we don't see updated images in front end servers. Would like to mention here that we have made sharepoint database read only. Do you think read only database is the issue here? What other points should I check? Thank in advance! V

Hi Vishant, I do not think read-only database is the issue, The content deployment updates the data in your database, and it should not update the Blob cache on your server. If you check the settings in the web.config, you should see something like: <BlobCache location="C:\blobCache\ " path="\.(gif|jpg|png|css|js|swf)$" maxSize="10" max-age="7200" enabled="true" /> The max-age specifies the maximum amount of time in seconds that the client browser caches BLOBs downloaded to the client computer. If the downloaded items have not expired since the last download, the same items are not re-requested when the page is requested. The max-age attribute is set by default to 86400 seconds (that is, 24 hours), but it can be set to a time period of 0 or greater. If this is the cause of your issue, a resolution is to reset the blob cache at Site Settings > Object Cache Settings.
