Other Cache Cleaner questions

Hi,
I am trying to use the frontend secret URL to clean up my Joomla cache but I have some problems.
My website is multilingual: EN and FR. EN is the default language.
What is the correct URL:
www.mydomain.com/index.php?cleancache=mysecretword
or
www.mydomain.com/en/index.php?cleancache=mysecretword
or
www.mydomain.com/en?cleancache=mysecretword
Nothing works.
Please would you help me?
Thanks for your reply

They should all work, assuming you replace 'mysecretword' with the actual secret word from the settings.

Hi Peter,
thank you for your prompt reply. I appreciate it.
None of these URLs work.
I use Admin Tools to protect my website. Do you think that it could be related?
Sincerely.

Maybe.
Can you give me (super) admin and (s)ftp access so I can take a look?
You can use the 'Confidential information' button in the forum editor to hide sensitive information.

I cannot visit the frontend of your site: Access Forbidden error

Can you also give me (s)ftp access so I can take a deeper look?

It looks like it is actually cleaning the cache correctly.
Your template just doesn't seem to output any system messages.
On the frontend, there will be new cache generated directly after the cache has been cleaned, during the same pageload.
So it is correct that the cache folder will not be empty after cleaning the cache via the frontend. But it is new.
You can test this by placing a random file (like an image or whatever) into the cache folder.
It should be gone after loading that frontend url.

What is the syntax of the URL for a frontend cleaning using a secret word?
