[Solved] ReportCaster not seeing my changes
This is weird.

I have a report - REPORT.FEX let's call it. User can run it from a launch page and it accepts a few parameters. No problem so far.

Now, I also want to schedule that same report in ReportCaster, so I have another fex - REPORT_RC let's call it. That does some setting of those parameters that the user was entering in the launch page - start and end dates, for example. Then at the end of that, I can do -INCLUDE REPORT.FEX or EX REPORT.FEX passing the paramaters.

If I make a change to REPORT.FEX after this is set up, the change is shown when I run the report from a launch page, but NOT when ReportCaster runs it! It still runs the old version of the fex. I verified that by putting the date and time of my last change into a comment line in REPORT.FEX and it's not getting the latest change.

Version 8.105

Has anybody seen this?

Saw that a few times.

If I remember well you will need to refresh RC service but I cannot remember why and what is causing that.
