-VuFind's Apache configuration includes an environment variable called VUFIND_ENV which tells the software what kind of environment it is running in -- development or production. By default, this is set to production, which activates performance-oriented caching and disabled detailed error messages for greater security. If you switch this setting to development mode (by editing $VUFIND_LOCAL_DIR/httpd-vufind.conf, uncommenting the appropriate VUFIND_ENV line, and restarting Apache), cache-related problems will automatically go away, and all on-screen error messages will be presented in much greater detail for debugging purposes.
