pdnsd: disk cache file error

[Raghavendra Bhat <ragu@vsnl.com>]

Hello:  As  of  recent,  I  am  seeing  that  the  pdnsd.cache  file  in
/var/cache/pdnsd is  not growing.  Above  and over that, while  pdnsd is
started, it spews out this error inside /var/log/syslog:

Feb  8 06:38:29 localhost pdnsd[366]: pdnsd-1.1.7 starting.
Feb  8 06:38:29 localhost pdnsd[366]: Error in disk cache file.
                                      ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ 
The permissions and ownership details of pdnsd.cache are as follows:

gnuhead:~# ls -l /var/cache/pdnsd/
total 0
-rw-r--r--    1 pdnsd    proxy           0 Feb  5 23:12 pdnsd.cache

The  permissions and  ownership details  of the  /var/cache/pdnsd  is as
shown:

drwxr-xr-x    2 pdnsd    proxy        4096 Feb  5 23:12 pdnsd/

Where is  it that  I am  doing something wrong  ?  This  problem started
after upgrading to the -2 and -3 revisions of the pdnsd packages.
