How To Enable Wincache (or any) BUG?

[VladTheGreat]

Got a problem, stuck php.ini and php5.ini in my cpanel root with:

"[wincache]
wincache.ocenabled = 1" 

Went to turn cache On back end and presented with greyed out bullet points?

Does it need to be On on the server to be selectable in Admin Panel?

Thanks in advance

4.4.4

	public static function supported()
	{
		return \function_exists('wincache_ucache_get');
	}

Though I see you've pointed me to a direct link to Wincache, my problem is that in ip board admin panel I CANNOT SELECT ANY CACHE SERVICES because the options are greyed out

Did you install the Wincache php module?

Godaddy shared ...(don't hate on me I know how bad it is), Wincache is enabled with the line of code added into a php.ini file (I'll be honest that's my best understanding of this), then saved into the root directory and allowes function server side, but I'm only asking about the option which I can't select in the admin panel of my forum back end, Wincache cannot be selected, the list of cache options (including Wincache which is the one I need) are greyed out so can't be clicked.... anyone know if I'm missing something, why can't I select any cache services in IPS?

You may need to enable it in your CPanel as well. PHP Version. This should bring up a list of PHP Modules installed. You'll need to make sure Wincache is selected there, if I remember properly.

You likely need to enable the wincache.ucenabled php.ini setting - you enabled ocenabled per your original post, and I linked you to the ucenabled setting (it's a different setting).

This may or may not resolve the issue for you, however you cannot use user-caching without enabling the setting. Our code that checks if you can use Wincache verifies that the PHP function "wincache_ucache_get" exists, and it is probable that it will not if you have not enabled the feature.

I just needed to know if that was the case thanks, So what would be the default string of code to enable the cache? If you could possibly get me started or know what to look for as I don't have a year to learn cache 🙂

[VladTheGreat]

You know, it really doesnt matter now, I realise, because I wouldnt benefit from cache after some consideration as I'm not running a forum as such so it won't improve performance for me.

Shame as this is a rare instance on Godaddy and would be sought after often I'm sure, wont hurt giving the string anyway for others but I'm in no rush now 

 

Thanks for quick replies

 wincache.ucenabled = 1

should do it in php.ini
