[DBTech] vB Optimise 2.0.1 (Lite)

[Deceptor]

XCache may not work with certain PHP setups FFMania, it can be funny with FastCGI/DSO depending on the handler/module php is running under. In most circumstances I tell people Memcache would be a better option because it does not fall victim to PHP setups as it runs as a dedicated service.

[newsoftw]

You won't really find any performance difference between XCache/Memcache, but XCache may be your better option (however Memcache has greater realiability/support). You'd need to contact your host to get either installed :)

ok and thanks for help. i am going to install the xchache as ur recommendation.

so now how i can configure the xchache and plz give me best xchache configuration setup.

my server processor : xenon 2.24 GHZ
RAM : 1024 MB
HDD ; 15 GB

coz i am new and i don't know how to configure xchache module and which sitting is best for my server.

thanks

[Deceptor]

Hi newsoftw,

With XCache all you really need to do is tweak the memory allocations to the cache and var cache, var cache is the only one vB Optimise is concerned with, for Lite I'd recommend allocating about 30M (which is 30MB) - should be more than enough, the other cache is for php files which XCache does automatically, you can assign that to whatever you like depending on how much php you have on your server, 30M there too should be a solid value.

No other tweaking needed really, although the configuration does ask for your cpu count and it does give you the command to run to find out, so make sure that's valid and you're all good :)

[ArtakEVN]

Is it ok, when my forum uses memcached itself, but vB Optomise configured to use filecache?

I am getting arrors while setting to use memcached, thats why use filecache.

[Deceptor]

What kind of errors Artak? Make sure you've configured memcache for vBulletin in includes/config.php, vB Optimise will use those memcache connection settings. After assigning Memcache to vB Optimise in the settings, run the System Test found under the vB Optimise menu in the ACP - this will make sure everything is operating correctly with the configured operator.

Memcahced is configured for vBulletin and working. But system test giving the following resylts

Running Test: Connection to memcache Test completed successfully
Running Test: Store Cache Your Opcache Operator extension is functioning, however it is unable to store data. Please check your extension configuration.
Running Test: Fetch Cache Your Opcache Operator extension is functioning, however it is unable to store data. Please check your extension configuration.
Running Test: Flush Cache Test completed successfully

[Deceptor]

That would mean it's not working then (even with vBulletin), vBulletin won't throw errors if the datastore cache you're using is failing to store/fetch, it'll just keep using the database and make 0 difference. The tests done by vB Optimise verify everything is working with your operator by executing the tests, as a means to identify if it is/isn't working and pin-point exactly what isn't.

I'd check to make sure your Memcached instance is running and running with allocated memory, if unsure it's best to ask your host.

[ArtakEVN]

OMG. You are right. sorry, the process was interrapted. Now everything seems ok.

[cobaku]

this mod is fantasic
i heard even more good things about pro version

sir i successfully installed the Xcache on my server and after this i made some sitting for Xcache in my server so please check these sitting means is it right or i need to be change any sitting or value for Xcache.
is there any best sitting for Xcache.

please check my current Xcache sitting:

.
please don't mind and need one more ur help.

thanks

[Deceptor]

Those settings seem fine newsoftw, you've allocated 8MB to the var cache which should be far more than enough required. As my previous post explained, there isn't really any "optimal" settings, they can just be tweaked to favour your environment/preferences :)

The query isn't generated or executed by vB Optimise, the MySQL error itself means the tmp directory is usually full, here's a topic on it over at vb.com: http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?237769-Errcode-17-quot-Can-t-create-write-to-file-...-quot

Does not seem to be working, when I click save, the screen just goes blank...
so I can save any settings, then when I run a test, it just says its offline.

ideas?

Hi, I am a newbie to this topic. I run 4.0.7 on a managed server where I cannot change any cache settings. Is this mod approved to be running with this vB version and does it make sense at all when you don't have a dedicated server where you can optimize everything the way you need it? I already did the possible optimization recommendatios by forums.digitalpoint.com, could this cause a conflict?

I would like to know more and test the lite version before spending money on pro, but only if it makes sense ;-).

Thanks!

[Deceptor]

onehost - Are you using XCache by any chance, or another cacher? If Xcache check the main post regarding XCache authentification.

Tize - You're welcome :)

ceho - The mod works on 4.0.7 just fine, as for making sense - the lite version reduces a couple of queries so why not :) If you're on dedicated you'll no doubt have plenty of ram - keep in mind you'll need a cacher system installed.

As for the DP suggestions - no confliction at all :)

i use them on my site and i am afraid if your product will affect them
also did you test your product with vbseo ?

Your best bet is to try the Lite version out, since there are an infinite number of server/cache/mod configs out there. If the lite version works then the Pro version should not have any issues either. Deceptor will be able to let you know in detail of any potential conflicts that stand out with those mods =)

After update to 4.0.8 I see this error Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in includes/class_core.php(4074) : eval()'d code on line 1

[EconomicVoice]

Hi,

After the upgrade on the forum home page I had a problem with the box at the bottom where 'What's going on?' is displayed.

All the text is pushed to the left and all the borders are missing.

For example where it used to say:

Blogs XX Entries XX Last 24 Hours XX


It now says:

Blogs
XX
Entries
XX
Last 24 Hours
XX

After switching plug-ins on and off I found it was this one that was causing it.

It seems to just be a cosmetic thing as no functionality seems to be affected.

Hope you get a quick fix.

Well, solved by myself
just needed to /clientscript/vbulletin_css/ set to 777

[Bradley_Wint]

I see under the DATASTORE CACHE CONFIGURATION section in the configuration, there is now an APC option. Does this do the same thing as your mod or does your mod do more to cache better?

You will need to ask your host about this. It is a server related extension.

vBOptimise utilises whichever Cache Configuration you choose. Beyond this, we do much more than just different methods of caching, we also save resources in a number of areas of your forum.

vBO is intended to save queries, not improve page load times

It saves one site approx 40million queries per day =)

less queries from your board means less load on the server meaning you can handle more users.

Thanks

Matias

[DragonByte Tech]

Can you please install Firebug (a Firefox extension) and use that to get a more complete error message from the AJAX request that returned the failure?

After installing it, click its icon, then Console, then run the test again. It should colour red the AJAX request that fails.

After a little testing, i found that the problem it's related to xcache, using memcache i'm not getting that error...

Fillip

[TeknoSounds]

After a little testing, i found that the problem it's related to xcache, using memcache i'm not getting that error...

is it a problem between xcache and php 5.3.5?
Am using php 5.3.2 still and xcache 1.3.0 and no issues here that I've noticed.

I notice on the xcache site 1.3.1 came out in Oct, http://xcache.lighttpd.net/wiki/Release-1.3.1

[gibigbig]

this is a very good script. im using the lite version and xcache on vb 4.1.0 and it the speed was so noticeably faster. i tested with a stress script, 500 queries took about 8-15 seconds to output data, with this installed, it takes ~1 always.

Great job DBtech team. I wish i could afford the premium version but unfortunately i cant atm. I already spent my money on your vB Shop 1.2.1

Btw, why aren't there any updates for the shop? its taking pretty long to come up with an update.

[DragonByte Tech]

Thanks for your kind words :)

The reason why vBShop has been left in the cold for so long is because we've been absolutely swamped with other projects and updates.
Rest assured that vBShop is on the top of the update priority; we have one new product to release and then we will update vBShop :)

yes when I disable this product everything seems working properly..

by the way I change the cache type to "filecahce" and change the folder permission to 077; now the product works properly..I got no error..and I'm also able to edit the templates etc..
but what I wonder is, when I choose filecahce as the cache type does it mean the same with xcache??

[TeknoSounds]

does your xcache show up properly in your phpinfo file? And are you able to flush the cache from the XCache Admin page? does everything in the admin page show its working? (i.e. counters increasing, colored bars filling, etc)

[newmark]

does your xcache show up properly in your phpinfo file? And are you able to flush the cache from the XCache Admin page? does everything in the admin page show its working? (i.e. counters increasing, colored bars filling, etc)

not with xcache but when I choose filecahce as the cache option then I can flush cache and system test also works properly..no error is given..and the most important part is, I can edit my templates with filecahce..but I'm not sure about the performance of it compared to Xcache..

[TeknoSounds]

right, that's using it through vboptimize. But is xcache showing as functioning on its own already? when you view your phpinfo file there should be a section for it if its running:
This program makes use of the Zend Scripting Language Engine:
Zend Engine v2.3.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2010 Zend Technologies
with XCache v1.3.0, Copyright (c) 2005-2009, by mOo

Hopefully you installed the xcache admin pages as well, and can you access them?

[DragonByte Tech]

Filecache is not as efficient as using a proper opcode cacher, but if you're unable to get XCache working and can't switch to a different and more recommended cacher like Memcached (extremely easy to setup, if I remember correctly it just needs to be installed, started, set to auto-start on startup, and then it Just Works), then filecache is a viable alternative :)

Thanks Fillip, for helping us get it going with Memcache .... :)

broken in 4.1.2

[DragonByte Tech]

broken in 4.1.2Unfortunately that does not help us diagnose the problem.

We are running it on two sites using 4.1.2 with no problems.


Fillip

[RWerksman]

FYI - we have this installed with eAccelerator. It was kind of tricky:

- You need eAccelerator 0.9.5.3 or below. The _get and _put caching was dropped from 0.9.6 and above.
- 0.9.5.3 only works with PHP 5.2.x It doesn't work or install with 5.3.x
- The note in the first post of this is correct. You need the extra flag in during PHP compile.

You can test to see if eAccelerator is working correctly (or will work correctly with this mod by dropping the following code into a php file and running it:

<?php
$rfunc = get_extension_funcs( 'eaccelerator' );
print_r($rfunc);

function ea ($str)
{
eaccelerator_put("testkey", $str);
for ($i = 0; $i < 1e5; $i++)
{
$r = eaccelerator_get("testkey");
}
return $r;
}

$str = str_repeat("1234567890", 1024); // 10 KB
$r = ea($str);
echo strlen($r);

?>

If you get an error. You have some work to do...

I hope this mod is worth it :D

Fillip

[Lestat_]

maybe stupid question but does this mean this mod reduces server load ? Currently i get about 25 error emails per day , always the same reason (mysql server has gone away) and always the same sql that's causing it (UPDATE vb_session SET lastactivity ...) so i could use a mod which reduces server load :)

[DragonByte Tech]

Your best bet would be to contact your host, those errors are related to a faulty MySQL configuration (or installation) which is not something a mod can help fix.

That being said, vBO does reduce the strain on the MySQL server :)


Fillip

[Lestat_]

thanks for the reply Fillip, I'm going to try this mod, thank you :)

[SpaceStar]

Hello

I don't know if this is reported before.

I have encountered a problem with this mod, when this is enabled and set to ON, it is not allowing other products to be installed. I am getting this error, if I try to install any other mod:

The website cannot display the page (HTTP 500).

Disabling this product, allow other products to be installed again.

[ellinofatsa]

thank you so mats work perfect in vb 4.1.3

Fillip

[MissKalunji]

I noticed at times, I would "save a template" and my website would go blank like no colors etc.

Do you know what's causing this?

[DragonByte Tech]

That's a known problem if you're also using the config.php variable to set cache method (which I think may be required with XCache, but I've also seen it happen with Memcached when the config.php variable is used).

Fillip

[MissKalunji]

Ah I understand. Well nothing that simple Flush Cash can't fix :)

thank you!!!

[TeknoSounds]

yeah i occasionally have a single rogue image that will disappear intermittently, but a simple flush of the cache clears it up.
Using XCache myself.

SO has to do with the fact I set XCache as the cacher in the vb config file? Any idea if thats a fixable bug in the future?

[DragonByte Tech]

It's not a bug with vB Optimise so nothing we can do about that I'm afraid :(


Fillip

[final kaoss]

any chance that this can be updated to combine js & css files? Maybe strip away the version numbers and then combine when the script runs?


1 change
clientscript/vbulletin-core.js?v=413
clientscript/yui/animation/animation-min.js?v=413
to
clientscript/vbulletin-core.js
clientscript/yui/animation/animation-min.js
etc...
2 repeat for all js files
3 combine them

[washingtonboise]

Supported Extensions

APC
eAccelerator
Memcache
XCache
WinCache
Filecache

Which is best?

[Successfulsteps]

I'm confused, does this require I install a 3rd party software first and if so, where from? Obviously optimization is needed for any growing forum, and mine is growing rapidly. I use 4.1.4.

[ndL]

definitely worth reading whole thread and installing all needed scripts.

[8thos]

Yo Fillip, wouldn't it just be more convenient (although time-consuming) to run each individual template, javascript and .css through a compressor and saving it instead of using a plugin? That's what I'm thinking about doing. Do you know of a good template compressor for vb4?

[DragonByte Tech]

Not really, as then you'd be unable to edit the template properly later on :)

How to fix?

[Mukashi]

Seem to have an unusual issue with this addon. On installation it works perfectly...right up to the first time it attempts to flush the cache of the forum. When it does that, the forum suddenly locks everyone out with the following message. We've only been able to resolve it by uploading the tools.php and manually flushing the cache, before hastily shutting it off in the admin cp so that the cycle won't repeat. Any idea what might be causing this? Our vB Optimise is configured to use our Memcache.

[inigo]

I am trying this mod, but when I have it active and I try to modify a template (footer for example) it returns a blank page and no code modification added. I have to deactivate it to edit template, but after reactivate the modification in footer doesn´t show.

I flush cache,... but no changes appear, any help, please?

Thanks,

[DragonByte Tech]

Please add the following code to config.php: ini_set('display_errors', true); and then go to the area where you got a blank page again, then paste the error here.


Fillip

[inigo]

I have added that line to config.php, but no errors appear, only blank page.

When I change any values in the admincp, I press "save", for example updating the name of a forum

.../admin/forum.php?do=update

And the left admin menu is ok, but the whole page is blank.

If I deactivate Vbotimise all is correct.,

I have vbulletin 4.1.7. + vbseo3.6

Thanks!

[DragonByte Tech]

In that case I won't be able to assist any further, without any error messages I have no way to help :(

[autoescala]

I installed the mod well, but at this time I don't activate the mod, (is in offline state) because I don't know what Opcache Operator I have in my system, I used a cheap shared web hosting (DreamHost)

How can I know what is my best Opcache operator ?

Thanks in advance
Best Regards

[A.Chakery]

well , most of shared hosting companies do not provide caching features so I think your host doesn't support Opcache...

but I suggest you to ask it from your hosting provider ...

[autoescala]

Thanks for the fast answer. I think the same, but I have the doubt if I can use "filecache" in a shared server....

I don't activate to the test the MOD, because I'm worry about how to de-activate if I have problems and I can't load the admin page after power on the cache.

[A.Chakery]

well I think the best is to ask your hosting providers...

The Server where my websites are hosted has both memcache and xcache ...

I use memcache using vboptimise pro and it really rocks ... I love the Full Page Cache for Guests ...

I have no problem with it...

[DragonByte Tech]

You can also check your php info page for any references to any of the opcode cachers vB Optimise references.

If not, you can use Filecache, instructions for how to use it is on the page and does not require any special software on the server :)


Fillip

[autoescala]

Thanks for the response, I ask to my provider (cheap Dreamhost.com) and say me that can't I use any type of cache in my shared free account.

I want try to use filecache, but Im not sure if It works....

thanks to all for the answers :)

[autoescala]

I test your cache in filecache mode and it works great!!!! very happy with it, how much is cost the pay version ?? I will tell to my boss....

Last week I installed xcache on my hostmonster account (shared hosting) following the tutorial here ... http://rk.md/2009/xcache-bluehost/

After verifying installation via phpinfo.php I waited until today to install vBoptimize.

Installed lite version fine (vB 4.1.10) but when I select xcache as the operator it tells me I have selected a cache method that vB Optimise has detected I can not use :(

hostmonster support said I didn't need to restart the apache server because "all apache variables that would normally require a apache restart are stored in .htaccess and dynamically processed".

So I went into cpanel and killed all processes, then went back to my site. Still can not use xcache as the operator.

Any ideas on where to go from here?

have you set xCache in config.php ?

[John Lester]

No I forgot that part :D However when I did set it I can't get into my acp, I get the following error:

Fatal error: Xcache not installed in [path]/includes/class_datastore.php on line 528

It's late and I shouldn't be fiddling with this right now :D

[DragonByte Tech]

You should contact your host, that error indicates it's not a vBO issue and it's an issue with the XCache installation. They should be able to help :)

[Nirjonadda]

Just purchased vB Optimise & [AddOn] Branding Free: vB Optimise I Think this is best mod/made by dragonbyte-tech.

[sivaganeshk]

Any updates on the Lite version ?

[sross]

Looking into using this, possibly going pro too. I will try lite first. Any issues with vbseo? and lite version running on 4.1.11? And lastly the "flush cache" option. The pro version has an auto-flush, does this mean I need to manually flush lite version every couple days or so? What happens if it is not flushed? Thanks!

[A.Chakery]

I ma using this plugin for about 6 month (the pro version), it has no problems wit h vBSEO,

and about your question : there is no need for you to flush the cache unless you make some changes to your forum (like templaes / images etc) then in some cases you should flush the cache manually , and about the Full Page cache for guests (my favorite feature in the Pro version) there is an option for the expire time , I set 24h for this setting , so every 24h it flushed the full page cache automatically ...

[sross]

should my vboptimize filecache folder be empty? I have it set to 777 but do i also need the parent directory to be 777?

[DragonByte Tech]

If you're using a cache method other than Filecache then it's normal for it to be empty :)


Fillip

[Winter Sonata]

shall i use this on 4.1.10 version, or it's now default in this version 4.1.10 ?

[DragonByte Tech]

Nothing regarding vB Optimise is default in vBulletin 4.1.10 or above.

Fillip

[mescalin]

Are you planning to update lite or pro version with css sprites, combining css and js?

i thought about pro version but it seemed to be not updated for a very long time are you planning to add features?

[DragonByte Tech]

Combining JS is very much a bad thing since it will break mods and possibly also core vBulletin features.


Fillip

[Winter Sonata]

Any ideas how to install those extention (xchache) on a shared hosting without hash access ?

[Zachery]

You cannot, stright up.

You're better off just using the filecache on a shared host.

[Winter Sonata]

Thanks alot, Zachery, I choosed Filecache and it tested and worked :)

But is that Filecahce sth simliar to Xcache ?

[DragonByte Tech]

Thanks alot, Zachery, I choosed Filecache and it tested and worked :)

But is that Filecahce sth simliar to Xcache ?Filecache uses your harddrive, it's similar but is much slower compared to XCache.


Fillip

[markp_2000]

Thanks for the mod. I will be going to the pro as with several of your other mods I have. One question on vbseo and memcached. Does it use the settings under vbseo or out of config.php.

Mark

[DragonByte Tech]

config.php, this mod is not aware of or integrate with vBSEO in any way.

Fillip

[Zachery]

Filecache uses your harddrive, it's similar but is much slower compared to XCache.


Fillip
Arguably, if xcache is also installed (but in a public setting) it should cache the file, and be reasonably close to the same speed.

[Winter Sonata]

Thanks alot for the support!

Assuming this product is as good as what I have read about, I am planning to use the Pro version to help my sluggish forum, but I was wondering if it's recommended to install the lite version to test things out first? Anyone? ty

[DragonByte Tech]

It's always recommended to try out the Lite version before buying any of our Pro versions :)

If the mod doesn't work with your server for whatever reason, we have a chance to resolve it without you being down x amount of money without a working product :)


Fillip

[tsptom]

Is there a specific directory for the attachments or were we supposed to create one? I created one and moved the attachments into it, and now the forum isn't showing any images / style, etc. I assume this was not right.

My forum is now down. I guess I should have run a DB backup first (I have one from last night, but...)

[DragonByte Tech]

Sorry, I have no idea what you're talking about. vB Optimise does not interfere with attachments in any way, shape or form from what I can tell by the code :S

Fillip

[tsptom]

That doesn't sound good.

In adminCP...

Save Attachments as Files
"vBulletin offers you the ability to store attachments as files, instead of the database. It is highly recommended you do this as attachments can lead to slowing your database down and increased load."

What is that all about?

That is a default vBulletin feature, not a feature of vB Optimise :)

vB Optimise will advise you to correct the setting, but it won't automatically perform it for you.

If you are having issues getting into your forum after performing that action, I suggest contacting vBulletin support.

Maybe you forgot to CHMOD the folder as directed by the page vB Optimise linked you to?

I did the CHMOD and the file are in the directory I created.

Isn't this a vb optimise feature?....

Do you know what VB database table(s) these attachments would have been removed from so I can restore them?

If you mouse over the Edit Setting link you'll see it takes you to /attachment.php?do=storage.

The second screenshot you posted is not a vB Optimise feature :)

My best guess would be the attachment table - I can't say for certain, though. Before restoring, try moving them back into the database and see if they start showing up again.

I tried putting them back but I got upload error messages so it doesn't appear to work.

So basically the vb optimise just took me to a feature within VB? It's not a function of optimise?

Every single link you see on that page directs you to vBulletin features that are not optimally configured for maximum efficiency. That's the entire point of that page :)

vB Optimise's own settings can be configured in vBulletin Options under the "vB Optimise" setting headers. Those control how vB Optimise runs and what features within vB Optimise are enabled.

Well, rats! Thanks for your help. Hopefully VB support can help me.

Update: Figured it out.

Hi, my small forum has 4000 threads, 10000 posts

I realised

/dbtech/vboptimise/filecache folder is 256MB big :eek:

Is it OK size? Or is there any issue or room to decrease it? Im not on Dedi, so disk space is also issue.

Hello...

My website have 10million post ++, the strange think i found is, after installed this mod for almost 36 hours ++, the site load quite slow, after disable this mods, the site load fast again, i tried to enable it again, site load slow again.

I found that vb optimize have "Flush Cache" menu, do i really need to perform manual flush cache every day?

[postcd]

should my vboptimize filecache folder be empty? I have it set to 777 but do i also need the parent directory to be 777?

I do ask same question please. Im using filecache.
Thank you

OK, I got XCache to work after switching to mod_php. It turned out that it was CGI/FastCGI issue.
I just hope it was right choice to ditch FastCGI.

Thanks Deceptor :)
Thank you :)
