If I use md5sum I get two different results on two different hosts. On the host where the file appears to be empty I got the md5sum of an empty file (d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e). I did some experiments since my last post and it looks like disabling the iocache plugin will eliminate these errors. I've attached the logs from the host where the file appears empty.
