Try opening the resulting output file in a text editor (rename it
to cache.txt if needed) and see what's in there. I wonder if you
won't find some kind of web server error rather than the image
data you're expecting.

If so, you might try playing around with the -f (--fail) option
to be better able to detect when this happens.
