memcached is not working in php 8.1 in windows 10

Question

I want to add php extension for memcached. I downloaded dll (8.1 Thread Safe (TS) x64) from https://pecl.php.net/package/memcached/3.2.0RC2/windows.

Put the php_memcached.dll file in C:\wamp64\bin\php\php8.1.0\ext

Put the libhashkit.dll and libmemcached.dll in C:\Windows and added C:\Windows in system path via environment variable. Added extension=memcached in php.ini file. And restart all services.

But the memcached extension is not showing when I check phpinfo();

Am I miss something.

Answer 1

First, check if your PHP install is also TS and x64, as shown on the screenshot below.

If it's correct, then verify you server logs (Apache?) and PHP error logs. You have to enable the php_error line in the PHP.INI (ie. error_log ="c:/Apache24/logs/php_error.log").
