Form appears even when physical copy deleted and cache cleared.

I am running an application on the oracle application server (Oracle 10G Release 2 10.2.0.1.0).

When I load up my initial form sometimes it runs the correct version of the menu i.e. the one in the forms_path and sometimes it runs an old version which must be located somewhere, but I cannot find where. I have searched the entire machine (used as the application server). There is no virtualisation running it is a straight forward live box and my search returns nothing apart from the version I expect of the menu.

Fair enough I thought, must be stored in the cache I then went through the process of deleting anything that might remotely store a history in Internet Explorer.

This didn't work so I thought it might be the cache in the JVM, so cleared the cache in the JVM and disabled caching.

Still no luck, now thought it might be caching issue in the oracle application server itself. After checking in Enterprise Manager that nothing was cached and restarting the instance of the server that was running and even the machine in a desperate attempt to clear anything that might be stored anywhere the old version still appeared on some start-ups.

Does anyone have any ideas from where this phantom form may be returning from the dead.

I even tried deleting all the forms on the computer (obviously backed them up) and miraculously the application ran with an old version of the forms on some start-ups.

This problem crops up intermitently as discussed above, where oh where is it coming from. Have been looking at this all day and just has me stumped. Help would be very much appreciated

Thanks in advance
Dan
