Hi everyone

Thank you for the feedback in this regard.

We have followed the advice of @Tim Hunt (posted on this forum), and implemented Redis. Since the implementation of Redis servers, we have been able to use caching in Moodle again.

I am still uncertain as to why exactly memcache stopped working, but Redis has solved the abovementioned issues.

Kind regards

Just to add to this post should anyone else encounter this - there are at least 2 more of us experiencing issues with memcached after upgrade to 4.1

Again - the simplest "do something" solution is probably to switch to Redis.

Also to note 'memcache' and 'memcached' are different things (with insane naming)
