Standard Skin Refresh in Browser

[radio...@gmail.com]

Ever since I moved to the (new, Chromium based) Microsoft Edge, I’ve discovered that the graphs for the Standard Skin will not “refresh” on their own; or even if I click the “refresh” icon on the browser.  The ONLY way I can reliably get a refresh is to hit control-F5.

 

Anyone else seen this, and perhaps have a workaround?

 

Thanks in advance!

Yes, I am using Chrome on Win10 and it's been the case for at least several months using 3.9.2.  The same thing exists using Chrome on iPhone except in that case there's no "full refresh" (ctrl-F5) option that I'm aware of.  A regular refresh updates the left-hand values but seems to do nothing with the graphs.  I even tried adding a cron job to delete the old graphics on my server and that doesn't do the trick.  I'd love it if someone has figured this out.  Thanks.

If you clear your cache does it update the graphs? It could be that chrome thinks the cached version is still up to date.

What kind of HTTP server?

No, I just tried it.  In fact it made it worse as the graphs went *back* in time earlier, after clearing the cache.  I don't know if I can attach files here but I will try to add screenshots to this email.

These must be the graphs on your server, because I had never gone to your site before and that's what I'm seeing.

I went in to the file manager on the server and could not find the old graphics.  So I'm at a loss as to where they are. From the Chrome browser the year barometer image shows a source at http://satwatcher.us/wxstation/yearbarometer.png.  When I download that file separately through the file manager it is the current proper one but the old version still shows in my browser.  Bizarre!

Oh, and BTW, I tried going to the website in a different browser, MS Edge, and saw the same old files show up.

It looks like you are using an nginx web server. Do you have access to it? I am no nginx expert, but I imagine it is using some pretty aggressive caching settings.

Look in /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default on the server
