Hi,<br> Yes, for my test I manually change the dbf files and verify that the timestamp is different. I would assume it is the same URL since it is the same file? The tiles are re-written only when I manually remove them. I haven't tried the option you suggest in tile.php. I will try that tomorrow. I haven't noticed a timestamp directory. Is there supposed to be one? Yes, it would appear that the same tile or none is being generated since the change can be seen when I clear the tiles directory and then they are regenerated. What should I be looking for? I mean is there some naming conventions or pattern I should be looking for? I have just started working with both kamap and mapserver and without any documentation it's a bit of a go.<br> <br> Thanks for your response,<br> <br> S.D.<br><br><b><i>"Delfos, Jacob" <Jacob.Delfos@maunsell.com></i></b> wrote:<blockquote class="replbq" style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;">

Now, I can see a periodic update on the map but the problem is when I have modifed a dbf file under mapserver those changes are not reflected. So the question is, is there something I need to do special to get MapServer or KaMap or whatever to detect an update done to a map so that it is served properly?? These changes to the map files are being done
programatically and not by hand.<br><br>Thanks, S.D.<br></blockquote></blockquote><br></blockquote></blockquote><br>
