Can't update images , JS or CSS

Hi guys, I'm new to splunk and I really need ur help!
I have some images in my app and I put them in myapp\appserver\static\img. The problem is, if I edit the image after I put it into myapp/appserver/static/img, it will never be updated. However, it will be updated once its file names is changed!
Same thing happens to the js and css in myapp/appserver/static/components/forcedirected. If I want to edit my js and css, I have to create a new app and put the edited js and css in it to make them work. But the js and css in app/appserver/static works just fine, which is really wierd.
I think the problem is that Splunk only loads the files once and won't reload them again. So what should I do to make Splunk reload them again?

You can either restart Splunk, or navigate to http://yourhost:yourport/en-US/debug/refresh to reload cached configuration items.

You will also find a link to that URL (EAI Object refresh) if you navigate to http://yourhost:yourport/en-US/info, amongst other useful things.

in addition:

  • don't forget to clear the browser cache
  • Bump Splunk on this URI http://yourhost:yourport/en-GB/_bump
  • Restart Splunkweb $SPLUNK_HOME/bin/splunk restart splunkweb this will not end the user session 😉

cheers, MuS

Restarting splunk, debug/refresh, clearing browser cache work on the js and css in app/appserver/statics only, not on those in myapp/appserver/static/components/forcedirected. But restarting splunkweb works at last! Thank you both!
