Re: Cache Directory errors

I have experienced a similar problem, some of the directories created for
the cache have been created as files rather then directories. I have two
caches split on two disks (about 2GBytes each). About six of the "cache
directories" were in files. So I had to create the directores and remove
the files for it to work correctly.
