Question

I installed memcache on my Ubuntu 10.04 machine but when it comes to restarting apache it gives me an error. My main root is /var/www/ and there is only index.php file in it.

Everything was working before installing memcache.

This is what I did.

Help please

You have to be root. You may want to use sudo when starting Apache.
