    copied!<p>Sorry if this question was supposed to be in Server Vault. I couldn't really tell whether it's a programming error or a server configuration error.</p> <p>I recently pushed my git commits to the live server and I noticed something very frustrating.</p> <p>No matter how I edit the <code>urls.py</code>, I can't seem to update <code>RedirectView</code>!</p> <p>Here is my root <code>mysite/urls.py</code></p> <pre><code>urlpatterns = patterns('', url(r'^$', RedirectView.as_view(url=reverse_lazy('order_list')), name='home'), url(r'^doors/', include('doors.urls')), url(r'^accounts/', include('registration.urls')), url(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)), url(r'^{}/'.format(settings.DAJAXICE_MEDIA_PREFIX), include('dajaxice.urls')), ) </code></pre> <p>The named URL <code>order_list</code> comes from one of my app's <code>urls.py</code></p> <pre><code>urlpatterns = patterns('doors.views', url(r'^order/$', OrderListView.as_view(), name='order_list'), # And more URL patterns... ) </code></pre> <p>So basically I simply changed <code>r'^orders/$'</code> to <code>r'^order/$'</code> in the last commit. But whenever I do <code>{% url home %}</code>, I noticed the server keeps trying to redirect to the <strong>old</strong> path of <code>/doors/orders/</code> instead of <code>/doors/order/</code>. I also noticed that the redirect is a <code>301 Moved Permanently</code>.</p> <p>So I tried to add <code>permenant=False</code> to <code>RedirectView</code> and restarted the server. But it <em>still</em> goes to <code>/doors/orders/</code> and the redirect is still <code>301</code> (it should have been <code>302</code>)!</p> <p>Why isn't my <code>RedirectView</code> redirecting to the updated URL?</p> <hr> <p><strong>Server info</strong></p> <p>Running Apache 2.2.21 using mod_wsgi with Django 1.4 on Gentoo Linux</p>
