How do I clear the cache via FTP? I do have direct ssh access to the host running lime. I tried just deleting the tmp dirs but then lime would not run.

Sorry, I need to let the people that currently still have older versions running answer, because this may have changd. I am not sure any more.

In the newer version (3.0 and up) it is at tmp/assets and tmp/runtime/cache. But if anyone knows better, please inform here!

We are running Version 2.73.1+171220 and the files are served from tmp/assets - I read in a post here that I could remove the tmp dirs and they would get recreated, but when I did that they did not, and lime would not run. Luckily I had made a copy before I deleted them. But not sure what FTP has do to with this.

Do not delete the temp dir itself, just the contents, I reckon.

Yes, I tried that as well. No joy.

In application/config/config.php, set debug to 1. That will cause the files to be loaded directly from the theme directory, not the assets manager.

Don't want to make a change like that in a production server. I just want to know how to cause it to reload on demand when I have new code to install.

You're welcome.

Well, I personally wouldn't want to run a production server with a non supported version of the software, but this is just me...
