rails rack cache - how to manually clear all the cache

Question

I cached a page via rack-cache, and now the browser never displays the updated page cuz its showing the cached version.

how do I clear all the cache? (Note: I deleted all the cached pages from the rails_app_root/public directory). I even tried disabling rack-cache but it still shows the cached version of the page.

any ideas?

tried it, didn't help. I've also tried Rails.cache.clear, still doesn't work. I've completely removed all Rack::Cache code and caches_page code, but still its showing the old page..i''m really confused – Thurston

also, in my routes, map.root is mapped to /public/home, if I go to localhost:3000 it still shows some old cached page, but if I access localhost:3000/public/home it shows a fresh page, any ideas? – Thurston

Try:

in terminal:

rake tmp:cache:clear

or in rails console:

Rails.cache.clear
