When you are getting unexpected results from Weave, it can be useful to clear your browser's cache. The browser may be holding on to (caching) information that you don't want it to. This can be the case when you receive "invalid session" errors or "502 - Bad Gateway" errors.

An alternative to clearing your browser cache is to use Incognito/Private windows when browsing. However, please note that if you have multiple Incognito/Private windows/tabs, browser cache storage will be shared across those incognito windows/tabs (i.e. closing one incognito window while others are open does not wipe out the cache storage).

This page explains how to clear the cache for the most popular web browsers.

Step-by-step guide

    1. Open the Tools menu (Alt-x).
    2. Go to Internet options.
    3. In the General tab, in the Browsing history section, press the Delete button. 

  2. For Edge:
    1. Open Settings and more menu (Alt-x).
    2. Go to Settings.
    3. In the Clear browsing data, press the Choose what to clear button.

  3. For Mozilla Firefox:
    1. Open menu > Options > Privacy & Security.
    2. In the Cached Web Content section, press the Clear Now button.

  4. For Google Chrome:

    5. Check: 
      1. Cookies and other site data
      2. Cached images and files
