caching DiscoFeed fails b/c cache directory does not exist
----------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: SSPCPP-461
                 URL: https://issues.shibboleth.net/jira/browse/SSPCPP-461
             Project: Shibboleth SP - C++
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Installation / Packaging
    Affects Versions: 2.5
            Reporter: Peter Schober
            Assignee: Scott Cantor
            Priority: Trivial


The installer for 2.5 does not create /var/cache/shibboleth but tries to store caches from the discovery feed handler there. This manifests itself in the Shib EDS complaining with fatal.loadFailed.

# tail -2 /var/log/httpd/native_warn.log 
2012-06-03 19:18:17 ERROR Shibboleth.Listener [9820] shib_handler: remoted message returned an error: Unable to create feed in (/var/cache/shibboleth//772f6db2.json).
2012-06-03 19:18:17 ERROR Shibboleth.Apache [9820] shib_handler: error while processing request:Unable to create feed in (/var/cache/shibboleth//772f6db2.json).

Once the path exists and is writable by shibd the EDS works fine.
