I think apt-cacher listens on a port and you can connect
to it with a web browser to fix it. see /etc/apt-cacher-ng/security.conf
to set a password also try restarting the apt-cacher daemon

I had no end of problems with it, constantly had to restart it and 
delete/ //var/lib/apt/lists/partial/*
and often /var/lib/apt/lists/* too

I just use squid now, you just have to increase the maximum file size that's
saved to disk so debs get saved.
