Cache not getting cleaned

edited March 2004 in Server
I have a Windows 2003 server running IIS6. I have created the webtier dll
and it is producing the reports fine when I request them. However, I notice
that cache directory is not getting cleaned and it has directories
(including pdf files) from several days ago. I used the default garbage
collection settings. Is there some configuration I am missing or do I have
to clean the cache up myself.

Note: my webtier dll is like the Custom Viewer demo as I produce pdf and
when I request the reports I use format like:
http://127.0.0.1/rbWebPub/report.dll?content=pfd&volume=ReportForms&name=Basic\BiolifeTable&framset=1 .
In my intraweb app I open a new window with the url specified.

thanks
Ian

    There are no known issue with the Cache not getting cleared.

    Garbage collection will only run following a WebTier request.. When the
    WebTier processes a requests, it sends the response and then performs any
    needed garbage collection. Therefore if you have not had any request for a
    few days, there could be directories in the Cache that will get cleared as
    soon as a new request is received.
