Components not caching anymore

[miumarvin1]

I used to be able to cache certain components and the box around it and previous components would be outlined with a grey box.

Recently, when i have tried caching the same component, the box will not appear. When I right click on the component, it will say "Clear Cache" but if I go to run the project, it will act as if the data has not been cached and load it all again.

Please could someone advise how to fix this solution?

@miumarvin1,

Short of a Restart, I'd try closing Alteryx and opening it again.  If that doesn't work, then I'd make use of CTRL-ALT-DEL and grab a cup of coffee.

Cheers,

Mark

Hi @miumarvin1,

Have you enabled the runtime option of "Disable all tools that write output"? This will disable the caches from working properly; it is a bug that has been identified and due to be fixed in the next release.

Yes, that is currently ticked. I'll try again without it ticked, thanks

Thanks, SamDesk. It worked for me!

It hasn't been fixed & it's making a huge negative impact on my ability to test workflows.

I am currently working out of the office & rely on caching to do a 1-time data pull, which then runs quickly on my machine running remotely from the work network.

The module is alrerady taking a long time to run when it's pulling from the network, and i cannot have sufficient time to re-run it from the network every time.

2019.3 - what a pain!
