The config file may not be correct. These are the relevant bits of my (working) config.php...

$CFG->dbtype = 'mariadb'; // 'pgsql', 'mariadb', 'mysqli', 'auroramysql', 'sqlsrv' or 'oci'
$CFG->dblibrary = 'native'; // 'native' only at the moment
$CFG->dbhost = 'mysql'; // eg 'localhost' or 'db.isp.com' or IP
$CFG->dbname = 'moodle44'; // database name, eg moodle
$CFG->dbuser = 'root'; // your database username
$CFG->dbpass = 'purple'; // your database password
$CFG->prefix = 'mdl_'; // prefix to use for all table names

 

 

 

Before anybody says anything - this is a completely local install in a test site, so the passwords are not intended to protect anything "real".

 

The ubuntu2.local is the hostname of the server on my local network so that I can access Moodle from other machines. I can't see why 'localhost' wouldn't work if you don't need that.

Actually, if you're asking if people are using it then there's presumably some benefit or use-case that might interest others.

Which is why I always ask, don't just mention some random technology... tell us what it is and why it's a good thing.

 

I still have absolutely no clue from the web site what it actually does. I just know it's going to change my life... or possibly disrupt it (I'm not sure if that's a good or bad thing any more).

Because the plugin actually works... it's a full implementation as opposed to a partial implementation.

I'm not sure if this would help - Policies

I thought that LSCache was an entirely different beast - for caching web pages. Memcached, Redis etc. are "simple" name/value caches in essence.

I could, as usual, be completely wrong.
