How do I clean my website cache?

You can physically delete it from the mybb_datacache folder but I'd recommend backing up that table before you delete anything in case it has any unexpected effects, I don't know what deleting it would do, but it can physically be done.

First though, try rebuilding it in the ACP - this might clear out the error
reinstall
That didn't help. looking at the picture, does mybb use cloudflare? could this be the problem?

I tried that already dthiago. the files themselves are not corrupt. Look at the image please. mybb is trying to contact the mybb.com server and encoutering a cloudflare problem.
^ just now I've tested file verification and it is working fine for me. however I've seen referred issue earlier
on some forums - and I assumed that those forums are using cloudflare and there is some misconfiguration
I'm not using cloudflare.
maybe my website started looking at the wrong mybb address for file verification after 1.6.10 upgrade? how can i fix that?

Ok, I found the reason. my website is hosted at a free webhosting service and your cloudflare account is blocking the ip they assigned to my hosting account.


I did a small script
<?php
$_data = file_get_contents("http://www.mybb.com/version_check.php");
echo $_data;
?>
and ran it and it redirects to a captcha page. this verifies that the host's ip is the problem Smile

I found this http://community.mybb.com/thread-131181.html
Looks like I need to some how get mybb to send my website's ip instead of web host's server ip to cloudflare. Any idea how?
