I need to install memcache on my dev server, I am using Xampp on Windows I have read a few sites that say you uncomment these lines in the php.ini file for xampp which I have done extension=php_memcache.dll [Memcache] memcache.allow_failover = 1 memcache.max_failover_attempts=20 memcache.chunk_size =8192 memcache.default_port = 11211 Then it says: Then head to Jellycan Code and download the Windows memcached port (binary). At this point you should be able to launch the.exe and run the sample code above. I have done all this and I cannot fine a single.exe file in the memcache package, I tried downloading ALL the memcache packages and checked them all and cannot find any exe files, and I don't think I am overlooking it as I searched the folder with 0 results. Also every site I have read on how to install memcache on xampp give these same directions, please help someone.

Posted by Theory Memcache is a caching system used to speed up web applications by holding small pieces of arbitrary data, it could be broadly compared to the $_SESSION variable in PHP, but memcache works across the whole application not just on a per user basis and has been successfully proven to make great gains in speed increases on web applications. Memcache was designed with Linux in mind and not windows, so it has posed some installation issues because Windows users are not so familiar with having to compile code from source as memcache does not come with any installation software.

Installation • memcached. Use the win32 binary version. • Unzip and copy the binaries to your desired directory, eg. C: memcached. There is usually only one exe file.

• If you are using Vista • right click on memcached.exe • click Properties • click the Compatibility tab • Near the bottom you’ll see Privilege Level, check “Run this program as an administrator”. • Apply the changes • If you are using Windows 64bit then will work instead of the links mentioned above. • Make sure that in perInstance.php memcache server’s host has the correct value, that is either ’127.0.0.1′ or ‘localhost’ or appropriate value as per your memcached server setup.

• Install the service using the command: C: memcached memcached.exe -d install from the command line • Start the server from the Microsoft Management Console or by running one of the following commands: C: memcached memcached.exe -d start or net start 'memcached Server'. Installing PHP Extension • Check your php extensions directory for php_memcache.dll • If you don’t have it, and copy it to your php extension folder. • Edit your php.ini file and add following to the extensions list: extension=php_memcache.dll • Restart webserver for the new php.ini to take effect. Testing Memcache and PHP’s Extension Here’s some sample code from www.php.net/memcache connect('localhost',11211); # You might need to set 'localhost' to '127.0.0.1' echo 'Server's version: '. ' n'; $tmp_object = new stdClass; $tmp_object->str_attr = 'test'; $tmp_object->int_attr = 123; $memcache->set('key',$tmp_object,false,10); echo 'Store data in the cache (data will expire in 10 seconds) n'; echo 'Data from the cache: n'; var_dump($memcache->get('key'));?>If you have any errors, it will most likely be because the php extension didn’t run Check the webserver error log to see if it had problems starting.

Windows Only Extensions XML. Installation; Runtime. Module has been abandoned and the MemcacheD module is now the only way to access Memcache through PHP.

Tape Diagnostic Tool. The most common problem is the version of memcache.dll is not compatible with the version of php you are running. Hi thanks for so nice article.
