No idea where you development is taking place. A common problem I have once a while is that I logging on the server as root or doing a sudo then triggering a bin/console cache:clear when you after this run another shopware command the cache folder might get the wrong file system rights.

Take a look to the var/cache folder and check the filesystem acls or rights. also check the owner. So in case these are wrong go and correct them.
