FTP appears to cache

This may be an easy one for someone to point me in the right direction.

I have several servers all of which display the same problem no matter what accounts I use on them, especially bad is our development server (Ubuntu) which is really bad at the following strange issue.

When I edit files in PhpEd and then upload using the ftp option - I watch the upload taking place and then go to a browser and try the file - what appears to come back is a cached file (ie: not changed) as if its not been uploaded at all...

When i do exactly the same upload with Dreamweaver the file goes up - and the browser shows it correctly.

Anyone seen this? Its as if the files simply dont get uploaded despite the logs showing it has!

Oo

I am using PhpEd and Dreamweaver on the same projects, and have not experienced this problem. If your FTP server log shows that the uploads succeeded, then the problem is obviously not on a FTP level (PhpEd). The problem is more likely your browser cache or some other cache, e.g. a proxy server somewhere between you and the destination.

What I typically advise our clients when they have caching problems:
* Try force a browser refresh with CTRL+F5.
* Clear your browser's cache.
* Compare with another browser or a different computer.
* Try accessing your website via an alias. If http://www.yourwebserver shows the old info, try using http://yourwebserver (without the www prefix). Your development server may be set up differently; create an alias (e.g. ServerAlias entry for the VirtualHost) will give you this option.

Most probably you have incorrect settings, either account root directory or project root directory.
Check with explorer where you're uploading the files.
Definitely, phped has no cache for files.
