# Cache folder recreated as root?

 * I’ve recently upgraded PHP to 7.2 using the same configurations as before when
   using this plugin. I’m now having a random issue (not sure if it’s the plugin
   causing it or something else) where the entire FastCGI cache folder will be deleted
   and recreated as root. This is not reproducible by clearing cache though. But
   it only happens when this plugin is activated. Both PHP and NGINX are running
   as the same user and there are no issues when first creating the folder with 
   proper permissions. But give it an hour? and the folder will be gone and only
   accessible as root.
 * What might be causing this?
