Re: Inconsistency in generating analytics

 

Hi,

I think its quite logical that if you set up a server cache and ask the
system to cache until next morning, it will return the same result even if
the upstream server content changes.

The cache under data admin is referring to the hibernate dhis application
cache, not the nginx server cache. There is no way that dhis running in
tomcat could clear all caches in front of it.

The reason for  "Table not valid, aborted update" probably happened for the
event analytics, and just means that there is no event data so we cannot
generate event analytics tables.

regards,

Lars
