You can't format "cache" it's just a folder. Do you mean formatting a partition? If so, you cannot mount or format a partition that is in use.
You can wipe /clear the cache.....

dont really know what I did, but somebody in a vid said to do so, so i can install a rom. I waited until my battery is empty and restarted the phone. Now twrp doesnt starts anymore. Already installed another version of twrp, does not work, too.

[Q] Stock Recovery Factory reset..

I have accessed my stock recovery and formatted or wiped my "Cache partition" without any problems. But when I choose "Wipe data/factory reset". There's an error coming up. Here's the log:
Android system recovery <3e>
Wipe Cache Partition:
-- Wiping cache...
Formatting /cache...
Cache wipe complete...
Wipe data/factory reset:
-- Wiping data...
Formatting /data...
E:Can't open /data/cwpkg.zip
E:Can't open /data/cw.prop
E:Can't open /cache/cwpkg.zip
E:Can't open /cache/cw.prop
Formatting /cache...
Data wipe complete...
I believe that drive E:/ stands for my MMC right?, I've double checked it, file that being called on is not existing. Even the stock MMC doesn't have those files.
Could anyone shed some light regarding these files that are being called on?
Thanks.
P.S.
Just a guess, "cwpkg" means "ClockWork Package"?
Edit:
corrected typo..
[Q] Are the errors causing you any problems? or are you simply curious?
I wonder if you get this error if you perform a wipe cache before doing a wipe data/factory reset. Someone with more Android experience than myself might be able to confirm this???
But, perhaps the wipe data option performs its own wipe cache and as you've already done that it then can't find the files to delete??
Skanob: wrong. E: stands for Error:
i would try reflash the ruu

There's actually no problem.. It boots itself fine after wiping. It really doesn't matter what you choose first or last, my take on it is just whenever you choose the wipe the data. that certain "error" comes up.
But everything is A-ok.. So i guess you can say i'm just curious..

[Q] CWM cache wipe -> storage corruption?

So I was going to take a nandroid of my Nexus 5 in order to transfer to my RMA device. I have found that device swaps usually go over better using CWM for nandroid instead of TWRP. So I flashed the latest CWM from ROM Manager and booted into it.
I figured I would save space if I blanked the cache, so I initiated a cache wipe. The display become a broken-up Android picture, and the cache wipe did not complete in minutes. I long pressed power to boot into the OS and found that - uh oh - the entire sdcard folder was inaccessible. All app data appeared to be intact but no app could read or write the sd.
Did I just completely bork all my internal storage? Any possible rescue path?
EDIT: OK I flashed recovery over to TWRP and its file manager still shows all my files. So all is not lost. But something went wonky and the OS is confused now.
In TWRP when I try a cache wipe I get:
Updating partition details...
E:unable to mount '/cache'
E:unable to mount '/cache'
E:unable to mount '/cache'
Formatting Cache using make_ext4fs function.
And it sits there chugging the status bar. Been over a minute now.
Aha okay, it finished. Fingers crossed... Yeah OK it's fine now on another full boot.
Still a bit strange though. Normally on any other device I've owned, a cache wipe was a simple matter.

Its an issue on the nexus 5 for some reason, took 5-10 min on my phone before but i think it was fixed in the latest twrp.

Yes, on TWRP 2.6.3.4 it took 5-10 minutes but fixed it. It would seem that there is a simple cache wipe versus fully formatting the partition. If the first fails to work, it proceeds to the full format.

Pardon me but i cannot find the right place where to post my problem.

wiping data without wiping /data/media... Done.updating part details...
E"unable to mount ,' /cache
I really feel at a loss as when it happened the last time on the other tablet it came round fine after a full format, but this one doesn't want to know..
Please help thanks

Hey mate ....
Sounds like you got yourself into a pickle .......
Give this a try .... Boot into recovery and ........
Code:
adb shell
killall -19 recovery
make_ext4fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p8
This should format /data, You will need to use the hardware button to force reboot......
reboot back into recovery and see if /data can be mounted now ......
Thx Josh
Thanks for the quick reply do you think this will fix cache mount and dalvik mount problems as the system can wipe date but not dalvik and cache.
Fixed

After much formats it appears to be that twrp was corrupt as after using a fresh recovery blob every thing seems to be in place and cache and dalviki can be mounted.
The only quirk is that no matter how I try to instal Zombie after the message to restart and enjoy it just hangs on the droid animation for more than an hour, so for the time being I went back to crombi-kk until someone knocks some ideas into me.
Thanks

HELP failed to unmount cache (device or resource busy)

at first im just failing at wiping cache.
now i cant even restore my TWRP backup.
it is saying "Failed to unmount '/cache' (Device or resource busy)
now my phone got no OS :crying::crying::crying:
I was facing the same problem.recovery twrp>wipe>advance wipe and then select system>repare or change size>change file system>select FAT
after doing it try to restore your backup and if you get error the only way flash your phone to the last build number(avalaible for your phone) and then install twrp recovery(last version).
restoring backup should be work with this method.
you can try this method
Mount>select partitions to mount : cache
select cache and after doing it go for restoring.

No need to restore /cache partition, exclude it The partition is used by TWRP that's why you can't unmount it.
I still have the same problem persisted. Can't wipe cache with this TWRP recovery. It says can't mount/unmont cache device or resource busy. Restore of the backup was impossible as well. Even when cache was excluded. Changing file types and repairing it also didn' work. In Mount cache is ticked permanently and it can't be unticked.

Try mounting /data manually or format data.
