The first and simplest thing to do is to close Kodi, shutdown the device and then do a system restart. (Make sure you completely shut down the device.) This will often clear up this issue.

I was getting the same problem . Fixed it by going to settings for commoncache then configure. Changed port numbers from 59995 to 0 as i believe port 0 is always open. Not recieved this error message anymore and all addons working now

The 'failed to start common cache' occurs if you are running multiple kodi (or kodi forks) simultaneously. This is an old thread, bigmannyc, so it may not be a real answer to your particular issue of a failed update.
