Empty geometry cache problem

[farbtopf]

Hi there,

I've got an issue with geometry cache. I've got an object which is constrained to a nurbs curve control object.
Whenever I wamt to cache it I get the following error

// Warning: Geometry cache may be static. ladleShapeDeformed does not appear to have animation on its construction history or control points

so I tried to bake the keys, which works. My object still does the same movement after removing all constraints. Yet when I create a cache I get the error again and when transfering it onto my render file nothing happens.

It'll be great to know how to get this to work, actually I don't really understand why geometry cache and constrains don't seem to work.

I'm using maya 2008

thanks
Jens
