varyByParam="None" not work

[murilobom]

When I add varyByParam = "None" in outputCacheProfiles the outputcache does not ignore the parameters that are added in the url, the redis cache stores another record.

I suspect this behavior is controlled outside of the output cache provider (e.g. by ASP.NET)- from what I remember, the interface it implements is pretty simple and the decision of what to cache and what not to cache is not made by this provider. I suggest you try this out with some other output cache providers and compare the behavior.

I am having the same issue - the varyByParam is not respected in asp.net mvc outputCacheProfiles from web.config. It always varies by param causing many copies to be put in cache.

@SiddharthChatrolaMs - can you please check with the ASP.NET team on this issue. As I mentioned above, I suspect this is not specific to this cache provider implementation, but we should confirm and have recommendations from the experts.

I just found that if you set the parameter on the [OutputCache] Attribute in the controller method then it works as expected. example you would write [OutputCache(VaryByParam ="none")] in the controller.

What does not work is if you try and just set this in the config file where you have a named output cache profile [OutputCache(CacheProfile = "MyCustomCacheProfile")]

I verified this works as expected if you set it in the code - only one cache item created in Redis

@murilobom, @Firegarden, is this still something you would like to see looked into? Apologies for the late response, the team has been quite busy.
