Updating files not taking effect

[jadayash]

Hello

I'am facing an issue from about 2 weeks, on about 10 cpanel servers i work on.

When i modify a php script using File Manager or even ftp, i should refresh several time to take effect, even if i delete the file, it still execute and after several refresh or i added a parameter to the url, it gives 404.

I know this may hapen with html or any static file, but is not normal to be on php files

Is anybody facing this issue?

Hello,

We have not had any reports of users experiencing this type of issue. I also tested this on my server editing a PHP file and saw the changes take effect immediately. Are you running any type of caching application such as Varnish?

No at all

I also haven't seen this behavior on my end, and I just tested this with one of my personal sites by adjusting the PHP. After a refresh, using a browser where caching is disabled, the page changed instantly for me.

Do you see the same behavior if you make the change, and then open a new private/incognito window? Private browsing changes how cache gets handled, so if you don't see the behavior there it seems like local caching may be to blame.
