The XperienCentral caching mechanism allows for content to be split up in separate sections that can be cached independent of each other. The of Server Side Include (SSI) technique is used to accomplish this. The visitor of a website does not notice anything since all executed functions take place on the server side before a full page is returned. For debugging purposes however, it is important to know which URLs are used to display content because they can all display different caching behaviors. The server side includes on a page can be displayed. To see them go the the following URL:
http: //<backend server name>/web/show/id=123456?ssidebug=true |
In order for this to work, you must be logged in with the Tomcat administrative login.
With the latest Tomcat versions you may have some difficulty using the tool. To be able to use the ssidebug or xmldebug tools, follow these steps:
- Open the URL
http://<backend server name>/web/admin/status
. - Log in with the proper credentials.
- Verify that you see the status page.
- Open the URL
http:
//<backend server name >/web/show/id=...?ssidebug=true
