Cherokee caching PHP pages and I can't clear cache

I do a google for "cherokee clear cache" and nothing shows up, which seems to
be a problem. There should be a button in the admin somewhere to do this :/
Basically I have my ".php" extension rule set to never cache content, yet
somehow it's not working. I am developing a CakePHP app, and when I develop
on local or deploy to test server (both Apache) my updates are reflected.
But whenever I deploy to the live Cherokee server, the updates don't seem to
happen. The cache seems very mysterious w/ Cherokee -- even restarting
php-fpm doesn't resolve it.
Does anyone know what the dealio could be?

The cache is in Cherokee, so restarting php-fpm won't clear it. Try
restarting Cherokee itself.

I assume it's the "Front line cache" that's doing this caching. I've never
used it so I'm not sure how to clear it.

Adding cacheability headers (Cache-Control) to the responses generated
by your application would be enough. Alternatively, you could disable
Front-Line Cache for PHP, but that'd be just a workaround.

Thanks, I have expressly forbid caching and set expires to the past for my
.php files, and I'll see if that gets the job done.

Re: Cherokee caching PHP pages and I can't clear cache [In reply to]

Sadly this doesn't quite seem to be working. The issue is that I've developed
a CakePHP app, and so I'm worried that even though the "main" index.php file
(which handles incoming requests) is able not to be cached, the controller
file(s) that it includes seemingly are. Is there a solution for this? I have
not had this trouble w/ apache systems, so it's very annoying, especially if
a site has an obvious bug, I deploy the fixes, and yet the problem remains.

Re: Cherokee caching PHP pages and I can't clear cache [In reply to]

That wouldn't be Cherokee doing that. Cherokee just sends the request to
PHP, which processes it. If your responses are not cached but the included
controller files are, that'd be a PHP issue, not a Cherokee issue. It's
PHP's FastCGI process controlling this, so you'd see the same behaviour
with any other server that uses PHP via FastCGI (like nginx or Lighttpd).

Are you using APC? If so, check that the "apc.stat" setting is not set to 0
in php.ini.

Re: Cherokee caching PHP pages and I can't clear cache [In reply to]

Gotcha. I guess there's a slight chance it was due to a CakePHP setting. I'll recheck.
I just hate any caching method where I can't either do a shift+reload or a restart of php-fpm or the webserver to refresh the data.
Caching should never be embedded that "deep" IMO.
