Hi

I am setting up moodle 2.5.2 and want to install a php accelerator to improve performance. I just don't know how you pick one and then how you install / configure it. Any help / how to guides would be great. 

I have been looking at xcache as it seems to have a version compatible with windows and 5.3.27 just don't really know how to configure it.

I am using:

  • Windows server 2012
  • PHP 5.3.27
  • MYSQL

Thanks

With the caveat that I know nothing about Windows...

If you can run to PHP 5.5 then you get OpCache built in and this is recommended for Moodle for 2.6 and newer. 

A lot of Windows users seem to use 'wincache' although I don't have any details. I expect Google does ウインク

Ok, i'll give it a go updating to 5.5 makes sense anyway. How do you then enable opcache within php 5.5?

 

Thanks

Just use the settings on the Moodle opcache page in php.ini.  The module is installed automatically with 5.5.  I just did this a couple of days - easy upgrade and setup.

Hi Emma,

Struggling with updating the PHP. Followed the steps from the link on my previous post but i just keep getting server error 500 :S

Is there something i need to change in IIS to tell it that PHP has been updated?

Is it just a case of editing ;opcache.enable=0 to opcache.enable=1 ?

Thanks

You would change that line as you have above.  I am linux user and so can't help with IIS.  Sorry!
