2.14.16.1. Configure Memcache in SMF

After connecting Memcache you might encounter this error:

2: memcache_connect () expects parameter 2 to be long, string given
File: /home/example/example.com/www/Sources/Load.php Line: 2742

To fix the error, do the following:

1. Open /Sources/Load.php file and find the following line in it:

   $memcached = memcache_connect($server[0], empty($server[1]) ? 11211 : $server[1]);

2. Replace the found string with the following:

   $memcached = memcache_connect('unix:///home/example/.system/memcache/socket', 0);

   Instead of example substitute hosting account name where site is hosted.

3. In the same file, find the line:

   $memcached = memcache_pconnect($server[0], empty($server[1]) ? 11211 : $server[1]);

4. Replace the found string with the following:

   $memcached = memcache_pconnect('unix:///home/example/.system/memcache/socket', 0);

   Instead of example substitute hosting account name where site is hosted.

5. Save the changes.
6. Check the site operation.

No configuration in site admin panel is required.
