@luke use phpinfo() to get the path of php.ini being used.

Hi Amit,

Thank you for your post it has helped immensely!

I am slightly stuck though, when it comes to step 4;

Edit php.ini to add ‘extension=memcache.so‘, to find the exact php.ini file used by your system

should the extension entry already be in this file?

thank you again

Luke

@Scott – The error you are seeing says that you already included memcached.so in your php.ini and now it shows up in there twice.
Check your php.ini and remove the duplicate ‘extension=memcache.so’

Bueno.

Hi Amit,

First, thank you again for posting this info, and for your help.

I got memcached going just fine on my server by following your directions above, however, I am having two issues:

1) Whenever a php command is run on my ssh command line (and possibly via other means), I get this error:
“PHP Warning: Module ‘memcache’ already loaded in Unknown on line 0″
Could this be caused by the line I put into the php.ini file to run memcached, and if so, do I need that line in there?

2) When my server restarts memcached does not run, even though I successfully followed all steps above. The only way I can get it started again is via this step:
type memcached -d -m 1024 -u root -l 127.0.0.1 -p 11211 on shell
What is my best solution for this issue…should I create a cron that runs every 15 minutes or so with that command, or is there a better way to handle this problem?

Thank you,
Scott

you need to install ‘phpize’ first.

I am trying to use your guide above to install memcache, and I am on one of the last steps, but am getting an error.

When I run this command:
pecl install memcache

I get this error:
downloading memcache-2.2.5.tgz …
Starting to download memcache-2.2.5.tgz (35,981 bytes)
……….done: 35,981 bytes
11 source files, building
running: phpize
sh: phpize: command not found
ERROR: `phpize’ failed

I read that this is an old php bug, but I don’t know how to work around it.
