There's probably a deeper problem, but unless there's a recently reported bug that someone can comment on, these things can be incredibly difficult to track down. I spent a few hours yesterday on something similar.

However, I notice that all the errors refer to the cache. You should try disabling this outright (from your dashboard). c5 cache has never really worked perfectly for me.

This might help with cache issues:

http://andrewembler.com/posts/improving-the-performance-of-zend-cac...

Basically, add this line to your [root]/config/site.php

define('CACHE_FRONTEND_OPTIONS', serialize(array('automatic_cleaning_factor' => 0)));


And jordenlev has created a job that delete all cache files that are older than a week. This helps keep the cache size in check while keeping your cache 'primed':

I just put his code in a file and name it "zend_cache_clean.php" and upload it to [root]/jobs. I then added it to the jobs table in the database by duplicating one of the existing records and changing the fields to match the new job. Apparently johnthefish has a free add-on in the PRB pipeline right now that incorporates this code by jordanlev.
