How to enable memcache in WAMP

Question

How to install memcache in WAMP?

I don't find any php_memche in php.ini.

What do I do now?

@Ryan

thanks for your step, now memcache enabled in WAMP, i have cross checked in the PHPINFO as well. memcache is displaying.

i have tried below example memcache sample. but throwing error.

<?php

$memcache = new Memcache;
$memcache->connect('localhost:8085', 11211) or die ("Could not connect");

$version = $memcache->getVersion();
echo "Server's version: ".$version."<br/>\n";

$tmp_object = new stdClass;
$tmp_object->str_attr = 'test';
$tmp_object->int_attr = 123;

$memcache->set('key', $tmp_object, false, 10) or die ("Failed to save data at the server");
echo "Store data in the cache (data will expire in 10 seconds)<br/>\n";

$get_result = $memcache->get('key');
echo "Data from the cache:<br/>\n";

var_dump($get_result);

?>

Getting below notice error.

( ! ) Notice: Memcache::getversion() [memcache.getversion]: Server localhost:8085 (tcp 11211) failed with: Malformed version string (0) in C:\wamp\www\memcache\sample.php on line 7

Here are the steps that worked for me:

Needed Files

• memcached.exe Direct Link
• MSVCP71.DLL Windows DLL Files
• msvcr71.dll
• php_memcache.dll Working memcache for PHP 5.3.4 OR REF

Steps

1. Copy MSVCP71.DLL, msvcr71.dll to C:\windows\sysWOW64
2. Copy memcached.exe into C:\memcached
3. Click Windows-Key
4. Type: CMD
5. press: Ctrl-Shift-Enter
6. Choose yes
7. type: C:\memcached\memcached.exe -d install
8. type: C:\memcached\memcached.exe -d start
9. Copy php_memcache.dll to C:\wamp\bin\php\php5.3.4\ext
10. Restart Apache using Wamp controls
11. Enable WAMP -> PHP -> PHP Extensions -> php_memcache
