Thanks for the pointer. I forgot to mention that Im running on Heroku and theres no permanent file storage and there may be multiple machines availabel to serve requests.
Do you know if that is something the Extension:Translate would have an issue with? I read that it wants you to define as cache directory, and I would assume that thats just temporary storage and a performance issue not going to stop it from working correctly if requests go to different servers.
