Lighttpd / Mongrel Caching

I have a big problem with caching on lighttpd/mongrel:

I'm pretty new to mongrel. I just installed it and ran some tests. I enabled page caching, then disabled it. I enabled fragment caching, then got rid of it.

Here's the problem: the page will not load dynamic content. The whole page is being cached somewhere. I deleted all files in my tmp/cache inside the rails app, I made sure there was nothing in /home/lighttpd/cache, and I turned off caching in my production.rb and in my lighttpd config.

This is driving me crazy! I even restarted my server to no avail. No changes I make to the template show up in the rendered page, even after stopping and starting both mongrel and lighttpd.

Any ideas that may help me would be much appreciated.

page caches end up in public/:controller/:action.html... check there.
