CFCACHE uses CFHTTP to run the script and write the response to a file. If
you can't use CFHTTP to run the script, CFCACHE won't work. CFHTTP might
fail for several reasons. For example, you might have permissions set on the
target script to require a login using NTLM authentication.

Rather than attempt to enumerate all the possible reasons for failure, I'd
recommend that you attempt to use CFHTTP through a recording proxy, which
will show you exactly what the problem is. You'd run the recording proxy on
your web server, and use CFHTTP to make requests through the recording
proxy. You can find recording proxies here:
