Hi -
I've just restored a mediawiki database from a couple of months ago,
using these instructions:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Database_dump_and_restore_examples
It seems to have worked but for one wierd thing.
One page serves up content as it was a couple of months ago, but
*only* if I'm logged in to mediawiki. If I visit the page without
logging in, I see the latest and greatest as per the page's revision
history.
I've tried deleting cookies and logging in again, but that doesn't
help. I've created a new user and this new user sees the same content
as you see without logging in. It's as if mediawiki has decided that
it's going to show this specific user a specific version of this page.
Any suggestions on what could be happening or how to fix?
Sounds like server-side caching to me. Truncate the objectcache table
in the database to purge the cache in one fell swoop.
