Hello to all, I would like to install Memcached on the server to boost my wordpress sites a bit. I installed it following the HowTo on Debian guidelines: https://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-install-and-configure-memcached-on-debian-11/ It is running : Code: memcached.service - memcached daemon Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/memcached.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled) Active: active (running) since Sun 2023-02-05 04:48:08 UTC; 10h ago Docs: man:memcached(1) Main PID: 15136 (memcached) Tasks: 10 (limit: 4915) Memory: 3.5M CGroup: /system.slice/memcached.service └─15136 /usr/bin/memcached -m 1000 -p 11211 -u memcache -l 127.0.0.1 -P /var/run/memcach But I think, that this installation is for PHP 8.1 My sites in IspConfig are enabled with PHP 7.4/PHP-FMP, so what is the most efficient and easiest way to make it work on other versions of PHP? Switch everything to php 8 ?
Memcached is not running for a specific PHP version, it's a deamon that can be accessed by any PHP version that you installed the Memcached extension for. So if you can access Memcached from a specific PHP version depends on the fact if you installed the phpX.X-memcached package for the PHP version that you want to use it for.
