texte = I think I posted this already... but just in case-I have some admin templates that allow the admin to add/modify/deleteproducts. NoProblem... the templates have been working fine for weeks and I haven'tbeen messing withthe code other than tiny cosmetic things. The problem is that all of asudden webcatseems to be holding two (or more?) conflicting versions of the productdb in cache. Sowhen the admin modifies a product and then goes back to the productcatalog listing (asearch that finds all products and lists them each in their own tablerow) she may seethat the product has been modified or maybe it has not. Or anotherexample - if shedeletes a product then goes back to the catalog listing, it shows theproduct has not beendeleted, or maybe it has. I have her on the phone and I say, hold ondon't doanything. She freezes. I force reload the catalog listing repeatedlyand on everyrefresh the template loads one of the apparent 2 versions of the productdatabase... atthe top I have [numfound] and it says 60 I reload and it says 61. Ireload and itsays 60.... On and on... I close the database (via [closedatabase])and then itstops, but as soon as any action is taken which tries to modify thedatabase in any way,the same problem arises again. And for sure no one else is in with anyaccess to any ofthe templates... When I download the db and look in with BBedit I seethe correct version(so it seems the [commitdatabase] is working on the right version at theright time), butthe ram version(s) are not consistent/stable...Any clues?(On Linux, webcat 3.06f)-John-------------------------------------------------------------Brought to you by CommuniGate Pro - The Buzz Word Compliant Messaging Server.To end your Mail problems go to .This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .To unsubscribe, E-mail to: To switch to the DIGEST mode, E-mail to  Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
