Can't change Magento base URL, stuck in cache

Question

I have just installed a live site onto a development domain. I changed the web/unsecure/base_url and web/secure/base_url fields in core_config_data

Answer 1

This can lead to a situation where you've changed the base URLs in the Magento database, cleared cache (manual deletion of all mage-?? folders in var/cache), (cleared APC cache if you're running the op-code cache), (manually disabled the compiler (1.4.x.x and later)) and the system still looks for the original site.%
