Question

i installed memcached and I also started the service by typing net start “memcached Server” and it said the service already started so i restarted apache and tried a couple of codes for using memcached:

<?php
//phpinfo();
$memcache = new Memcache;
$memcache->connect("localhost",11211); //change if necessary

$tempArray = array('fish', 'cow', 'demon');
$temp = serialize($testArray);

$memcache->add("key", $temp, 60);
print_r(unserialize($memcache->get("key")));


?>

but it gives an error:Fatal error: Class 'Memcache' not found in C:\wamp\www\temp.php on line 3
does this mean memcache is not started or anything else? i have not done anything except installing and starting the service do i need to do anything else like specifying The RAM and adding the server or anything else? I am using wamp server.

Here are the steps that worked for me:

Url: How to enable memcache in WAMP

Needed Files

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

Steps

Copy MSVCP71.DLL, msvcr71.dll to C:\windows\sysWOW64
Copy memcached.exe into C:\memcached
Click Windows-Key
Type: CMD
press: Ctrl-Shift-Enter
Choose yes
type: C:\memcached\memcached.exe -d install
type: C:\memcached\memcached.exe -d start
Copy php_memcache.dll to C:\wamp\bin\php\php5.3.4\ext
Restart Apache using Wamp controls
Enable WAMP -> PHP -> PHP Extensios -> php_memcache

Then, I hit the phpinfo(), it wasn’t display the memcache property. Any one can help me to install the wmap.
