   because the cache response an error 500, If I stop and empty the cache directory

 * I don’t know what’s happening exactly but do you have a long cache timeout? Try
   setting it lower as your server might be running into trouble refreshing the 
   cached files.

 * Do you have preload mode on? Try disabling it and set the cache timeout to 3600
   seconds.
