How can i tell Zend Opcache not to cache any files from a specific directory. For e.g /var/www/public_html/devzone/*

I use PHP 5.5.13 with Zend OPcache v7.0.4-dev

You should set the opcache.blacklist_filename configuration value with a file path to your blacklist.

The location of the OPcache blacklist file. A blacklist file is a text file containing the names of files that should not be accelerated, one per line. Wildcards are allowed, and prefixes can also be provided. Lines starting with a semi-colon are ignored as comments.


For example, create a new file:

/etc/php5/opcache-blacklist.txt

Save with your wildcard setting:

/var/www/public_html/devzone/*

And add the blacklist file path to your php.ini:

opcache.blacklist_filename=/etc/php5/opcache-blacklist.txt
