disable caching of files

Hello,

 

 

I wish to prevent caching of self extracting zip files (extension .exe) by the webaccelerator, does anyone knows how to do so ?

 

 

Many thanks for any help.

 

 

Regards.

  • Create a new node in the policy you are using under static->documents with the proxying options set to always proxy.

     

     

    1) Expand the request type hierarchy to see the file types under Documents.

     

    2) Copy the Misc Client Uncompr. node ( I am guessing you don't want the exe files to be compressed)

     

    3) Under matching delete the content-type parameter

     

    4) Add an extension type parameter for exe

     

    5) Move the node up in the hierarchy so it has a higher priority of the Misc Client Uncompr node

     

    6) Select Acceleration Rules from the policy editor

     

    7)Select Proxying

     

    8) Select the radio button for "Always proxy requests for this node"

     

    9) Save & Publish
