Probably this happened because some changes have been made to
the variable 'cnfluaspec'. That is used to find texmfcnf.lua,
and it is also used as part of the hashed cache path, so any
changes to it make the old already generated cache unreachable.

The problem is transient indeed, and in a fully new install it
would not have happened at all.

Best wishes,
