Eupolemos Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 So, I'm making a new LEMP server with a separated database and stuff, for a forum with all the new toys; ubuntu 16.04, nginx, MySQL 5.7 and PHP7.0 - Alas, it turns out that memcached for php7 isn't done yet! I'm not really up for managing developer-versions and git repositories. I'm pretty new at this and looking for some input. Would I be better off going with an earlier php-version that can handle memcached or what would you suggest? How important IS memcached actually, when it comes down to it? Please chime in - I'm at a loss :o( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ASTRAPI Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 Memcached works great with php7 For IPB 4 it will help a lot. For IPB 3 you can skip it. If you post how did you try to install it and what errors do you get we may be able to help you.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eupolemos Posted November 16, 2016 Author Share Posted November 16, 2016 Hi Astrapi - I was hoping you would show up And I also hope that I am the one who's misunderstanding something. As I said, I'm still a bit new at this. But here are a few links that say memcached does not support PHP 7.0 yethttps://pecl.php.net/package/memcachedhttps://github.com/php-memcached-dev/php-memcached/issues/213 If I do an apt-cache search php7.0 nothing show up about memcached. If I do an apt-cache search memcached this shows up: php-memcached - memcached extension module for PHP5, uses libmemcached Which makes me believe it wouldn't work with PHP 7.0 Here's the best advice I've found yet on how to install memcached for PHP 7.0https://serverpilot.io/community/articles/how-to-install-the-php-memcache-extension.html But as you can see, it requires me to install a lot of extra stuff, using developer-versions and using Make. I fear I would install something I cannot maintain. Or am I just confusing myself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ASTRAPI Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 Memcached add support for php 7 from last December so it seems that you only need some correct instructions for your Distro (Ubuntu) and as i am not using it i want to recommend you to check using Google and also check my PM for some instructions that i may not be allowed to post here as they are linked to server providers tutorials Test them and let us know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
