How to clear cached redirects in Chrome
How do you clear cached redirects in Chrome?
I changed the DNS for a domain name and when I go to mydomain.com. Even though ping mydomain.com now shows it resolves to the correct IP, if I type in "mydomain.com" into Chrome, it still redirects to mydomain.com/404, which was a redirect automatically setup by the old webhost.
Clearing Chrome's browser cache has no effect, and Chrome seems to ignore /etc/hosts. I tried using a "different" URL, like mydomain.com?123, but Chrome still redirects to mydomain.com/404. Is this a bug or is there someway to clear whatever cache Chrome uses to save 301 redirects?

On desktop Chrome, deleting the last hour of browsing history works, so long as you've followed the redirect within the last hour.
On Android Chrome, visit chrome://net-internals, click the downward arrow at the top right corner, and choose 'clear cache'. That is the only solution I found for Chrome on Android.

In OS X when modifying hosts file Chrome just keeps redirecting despite clearing everything; even thought chrome://net-internals. It even redirects when using private browsing tabs, so it is probably not your regular cache issue... Any ideas?

I had a similar issue with a site still re-directing to my.site.com/new-site
and found the 'clear cache' via internals to work.
Redirects can be caused by a variety of things - caching by your browser, your system, the network, the site configuration itself and any in between steps.
In addition to clearing browsing history and cookies, I also tried the answers from Clear cache for specific domain name in chrome - I suggest trying answers in order of increasing complexity (e.g. start with what you're happiest with and if that doesn't work, try one of the more tricky solutions)

If it's an 301 redirect Chrome will cache it. To clear the cache, go to:
Chrome Menu > Settings > Show advanced settings... > Privacy > Click Clear browsing data...
Good luck.
