When I run the "nginx -V 2>&1 | grep nginx-cache-purge -o" it doesn't give any result?

Apart from that, when I manually purge cache, FastCGI cache directory size not change. Is that means my "Cache Purge" not supporting?

Hello, it's only because the module folder is ngx_cache_purge and not nginx-cache-purge. What do you mean by manually purge cache ?
