< p > Removing caveData (flushing the local cache) should be one of the first troubleshooting steps to take when experiencing weird behavior in CAVE. The cache lives in a folder called < strong > caveData< / strong > , hence why this process is also referred to as removing or deleting caveData.< / p >

< p > Since the pandemic began, many users have asked if they can use X11 forwarding or ssh tunneling to remotely connect to CAVE machines. < strong > This is not recommended or supported< / strong > , and CAVE crashes in many different ways and expresses strange behavior as well.< / p >
< p > We highly recommend you < a href = "../install-cave/" > download the appropriate CAVE installer< / a > on your local machine, if that is an option.< / p >
< p > If that is not an option, then the only remote access we recommend is using some type of VNC.
< a href = "https://www.realvnc.com/en/" > < strong > RealVNC< / strong > < / a > and < a href = "https://www.nomachine.com" > < strong > nomachine< / strong > < / a > are two options that are in use with positive outcomes. < a href = "https://www.uvnc.com" > < strong > UltraVNC< / strong > < / a > may be another option, but may have quite a delay.

< p > This problem is most commonly seen with the direct Windows installation. It can also manifest in the Mac installation, and the root of the problem is not having Python installed properly for CAVE to use the packages.< / p >
