did you report your problems?

I guess the installer dont work..
the cache file was introduced recently. It is created after the installation process so the installer will not be able to set the permissions appropriately.

It seems the webservers user was not able to write to the nagvis/var directory to create new files there? It seems this permission was not checked by NagVis before trying to write some caching files. I just added a check to the NagVis caching mechanism for that.
