Does Koha use a cache to remember config settings in OPAC and Intranet?

I updated koha_conf.xml to change the password and now in the librarian view and OPAC view I get this error:

Access denied for user 'kohaadmin'@'localhost' (using password: YES) at /home/koha/kohaclone/C4/Context.pm line 667.

Here's what I've done:

1. changed the password in koha_conf.xml.

2. updated the kohaadmin password in mysql for koha dbase

3. restarted apache2

4. checked if in terminal I can access mysql with new password -- yes I can

5. when the above error echos -- I was inserted the password it was getting in Context.pm line 667 - that password was the former password.

6. in Context.pm I hard code the new password and there's success.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,

Rick
