Hello Howard,

thank you for your answer.But unfortunately, after removing the 
filter.cache from my xml I receive the error:'PDAL: Couldn't create 
writer stage of type 'writers.pgpointcloud'. Could there be something 
wrong with my pdal oder pointcloud installation? I used this 
documentation: 
http://suite.opengeo.org/opengeo-docs/dataadmin/pointcloud/install.html?highlight=pdal#dataadmin-pointcloud-install-activate 
to install the programs.

Regards.

Thomas
