How do I get the “php artisan cache: clear” command to work?

Is your
storage/framework/cache folder set with the correct permissions? This started changing for me recently too when I had to run composer commands (such as composer create-project laravel/laravel) as root vs current user.– Tim Lewis

This could be one of several things(need more information to narrow it down):
Expansion on points 1 and 2:
This is normal behavior. If you have opened pages expecting them to be cached and they are not, split the page and utilize @include directives splitting out the dynamic and static elements of the page into separate blade files.
@include
I like to add my user to the same group as the web server's group(www). Then change the group for all of the files to www, with group read permissions, and write permissions only on the bootstrap/cache and storage directories.
bootstrap/cache

@GeorgeHanson Any failure to delete files in 5.7 results in the message: $successful = $this->cache()->flush(); $this->flushFacades(); if (! $successful) { return $this->error('Failed to clear cache. Make sure you have the appropriate permissions.'); This is not a bug, just a change in the message. It used to ignore empty directories.

I think it might possibly be a bug with the latest version of Laravel, however unlikely it may seem. I started a new project today and installed a fresh copy of Laravel 5.7 and it seems to cause the error above. However, if I use 5.6 then the error does not appear.
create storage/framework/cache/data directory manually.
Many thanks you
