Does it work on localhost?

    I’m testing it on localhost, before launching my website live. I’m running Apache+php8.2, on windows 11. The APCu is enabled as it shows in php info, and it has these settings in the php.ini:

    [apcu]
    extension="C:\xampp\php\ext\php_apcu.dll"
    apc.enable=1
    apc.shm_size=32M
    apc.ttl=7200
    apc.enable_cli=1
    apc.serializer=php

    The APCu shows in the WordPress > Tools > Health also, however the plugin itself doesn’t seem to find it. It states “APCu extension is NOT installed/enabled.”

    I’ve tried changing the browser, cleaning the cache etc, the last thing I wonder is whether or not the plugin works on localhost. Any ideas?

    Thank you

    It works on localhost and also under windows.

    where in site health do you see APC info?
    can you send a screenshot?


    screen2.link

    What happens if you run this code:

    <pre><?php

    print_r(apcu_cache_info()['mem_size']??'');

    When I run the code I get a 0

    I meant the /wp-admin/site-health.php. I can’t upload images here, but this is from the WP health page:

    You should use a persistent object cache
    Performance
    A persistent object cache makes your site’s database more efficient, resulting in faster load times because WordPress can retrieve your site’s content and settings much more quickly.

    Your hosting provider can tell you if a persistent object cache can be enabled on your site. Your host appears to support the following object caching services: APCu.

    And this from my php info

    apcu
    APCu Support	Enabled
    Version	5.1.24
    APCu Debugging	Disabled
    MMAP Support	Disabled
    Serialization Support	php
    Build Date	Nov 29 2024 01:59:27

    And from /wp-admin/plugins.php

    atec Cache APCu
     | Deactivate | APCu extension required!

    and finally on the plugin’s page

    APCu Object Cache 
    APCu extension is NOT installed/enabled.

    The object cache is the main feature of the plugin and will speed up your site

    You can use screen2.link to post images.

    what do you get?

    <pre><?php

    echo 'hello';

    print_r(apcu_cache_info()['mem_size']??'');

    echo '<br>';

    print_r('ext'.extension_loaded('apcu'));

    echo '<br>';

    print_r('enabled'.apcu_enabled());

    echo '<br>';

    Please try to

    #apc.serializer=php

    it might also be useful to in php_apcu_bc.dll for APCu with backward APC compatibility

    Hi,

    Thanks for your support. I’ve just noticed that it is working fine with my other localhost sites, so it must be something with my particular WP installation. I’ll figure it out myself. For now, I can confirm that it works for localhost.
