Question How to purge nginx cache through wp-toolkit?

[kevinmamaqi]

Hi,

I can see that my plesk site is still caching deleted resources. I have tried to disable cache, delete /var/cache/nginx/domain_folder and the cached resource is still there. Any suggestion?

You can't. On the stock NGINX configuration, you'll need to remove the files. The two folders you want to empty are domain_proxy and domain_fastcgi. Are you sure its the server caching the resources?

The two folders you want to empty are domain_proxy and domain_fastcgi.

Where's that?

 

[weltonw]

/var/cache/nginx/domain.com_proxy
/var/cache/nginx/domain.com_fastcgi

Ah, o.k., that's what I see (however the _proxy folders only, but no _fastcgi folders). That's probably what @kevinmamaqi meant, though, with "domain_folder"? @kevinmamaqi could you please clarify?

Yeah - if he's deleting those, NGINX will not serve cached files. I'm guessing he's got another cache (browser or cdn). Probably browser
