Create it yourself : 
dig . ns > cache.dns

One cause (don't laugh) is :using NT nameserver. It's broken, one
of the brokenness is that it will happily replace the contents of
cache.dns which whatever it considers beeing "a list of root-nameservers".
And it does so without telling You. This is userfriendlyness a la Gates.
