How to manual remove cache files?

Unfortunately I have to run Exponential on a rather slow win2k server. I only have ftp-access.

Running the clear-cache function in admin takes a couple of minutes, so I'd like to remove the cache file manually.

Where do I find the cachefile for the file plain/override/templates/my_full_article.tpl?

i think you may find them here

Exponential / var / plain / cache /

Yes, this is the location of all cache files. My point was to only remove a single file, and not all. I've found the specific template cache files, but removing this didnt do the trick. But strangely enough; deleting the <i>content</i> cache file did the trick!

Take the time to navigate through the /var directory.

You'll find all the caches.

Any time you have an eZ problem, one of the best starting points is to clear the cache.

You have to remove the single file that is associated with the template you are trying to clear, and then also remove the Cache-Block folder. There may be an identifiable file in that folder somewhere, but I found that through FTP it is pretty quick to remove 1 cache file and that folder. Also, it does not take long for the server to rebuild the cache of that 1 file.
