I downloaded the file dl.example.com/10mg.test
once. And suddenly I noticed even without webserver running (service nginx stop
) I can still reach the file.
How is this even possible ? No matter how many times I try, I can still reach the file and download it to full content. And there is no connection alive when I check using netstat --tcp
and no traffic change in ifconfig
Tried renaming the file, still can download it. Also tried changing browser.
Is there a possibility that the ISP cached the file ?
note : the 10mg.test
file is the cachefly test file that I downloaded to server using wget
UPDATE 1: Tried shutting down the server, Still can download the file...
UPDATE 2: Seems I can't reach the file anymore. Not sure if it's because the server is completely down and I gave it some time. Even if it was caused by any other running process, why I couldn't see any change in ifconfig
TX/RX value, neither in netstat --tcp
UPDATE 3: After rebooting the server, I renamed the file name and used watch ifconfig
to watch over TX rate. Then started downloading file with different browsers and devices, and still There is no change in TX rate after the file has been downloaded once.
