 * Most likely you need to uninstall Swift from dev installation and have a clean/
   new Swift installation. Can you see if that solve this issue.

 * Did you uninstall it completely, before reinstall?
 * However, for staging you don’t really need caching. Just disable it. It´s est
   practice for developer environments.

 * Since this topic has been inactive for a while, I’m going to go ahead and mark
   as resolved. Don’t hesitate to reopen or create a new topic if you still need
   help!
    Thanks for understanding!
