If you install a tool like fiddler (or any other software that lets you see what requests are made) you can track on which path the policy file needs to be. In most cases you used the wrong directory for the file or there is no request made because it's cached somewhere.

Check if your file is where it is supposed to be. Most likely, it's not.
