CI 2.0 missing memcache config file

[eluser]joshfng[/eluser]
The user guide says the there should be a config file for memcache located in the application/config/ directory but there is not one there.

Is it located somewhere else?

[eluser]Victor Michnowicz[/eluser]
You gotta create it yourself.

[eluser]joshfng[/eluser]
http://ellislab.com/codeigniter/user-gui...#memcached says its located in the config directory but it is not. If I am supposed to create it myself the docs give no details on what the caching class expects in terms of a config array to pass it.

[eluser]Victor Michnowicz[/eluser]
Yeah, I assumed it was in there as well. I think something like this would go in your memcached.php config file (I have not tested this):

Code:

<?php

$config['memcached'] = array(
    'server_1' => array(
        'host' => '127.0.0.1',
        'port'        => 11211,
        'weight'    => 1
    ),
    'server_2' => array(
        'host' => '127.0.0.2',
        'port'        => 11211,
        'weight'    => 1
    ),
    'server_3' => array(
        'host' => '127.0.0.3',
        'port'        => 11211,
        'weight'    => 1
    )
);

You also gotta remember that memcached is different than memcache. That got me for a while... I created (really just search/replaced) a memcache driver if you are interested. It seems to work well for me.

[eluser]joshfng[/eluser]
Hmm I tried the config file you gave me and it's not working. The weird thing is if I connect to memcached directly using just the memcached ext everything connects and works fine.

I'd really like to know what to do with this ...
Any help would be greatly appreciated

I think the memcached.php config file has to be like this

Code:

<?php
$config['memcached'] = array(
        'hostname' => '127.0.0.1',
        'port'        => 11211,
        'weight'    => 1
);

At least that worked for me.
Also keep in mind what elvicmic mentioned.
Memcached and memcache are different extensions. Check your php.ini which extension is loaded.

Yeah same as m3du54, my memcached.php file

Code:

<?php

  if (!defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');

  $config['memcached'] = array(
          'hostname' => '127.0.0.1',
          'port'        => 11211,
          'weight'    => 1
  );

?>

Yes this works. Thanks everyone!
