With some help... I figured out the problem. I was using the file
cache option and although the /tmp/cache directory was writable I was
missing a necessary directory. Since I was trying to cache an element
the /tmp/cache/element directory needs to exist and it must be
writeable. My problem was that the element directory was missing.
Once I added it... everything started working as expected.
