We are trying to use Memcached (1.5.22) as a session handler on a server with Apache + PHP 7.4 and CodeIgniter 3.1.11, however, we have observed random errors with the message below:
Quote:Code:
session_start(): Failed to read session data: user (path: XX.XX.X.XX:11211)
The application is making AJAX requests, approximately 25 requests in one second, of these 25 requests, few present the error.
Because of that we decided to look at the Memcached error log and noticed that when this error occurs, Memcached returns 3x an error in the log, as below:
Code:
238593:May 12 14:09:45 memcached-01 systemd-memcached-wrapper[436]: <32 ADD da_session:b2ZnDAkIZ15vpbhrHHkxoZesSSC6Lgi5:lock Value len is 10

We already tried increase
Code:
memcached.sess_lock_retries
to 50, disable
Code:
memcached.sess_locking
, and the error always happens.
Code:
memcached.sess_lock_retries 50
memcached.sess_lock_wait not set
memcached.sess_lock_wait_max 2000
memcached.sess_lock_wait_min 150
What could be happening?
