[DBTech] vB Optimise v2 (vB3)

[DragonByte Tech]

vB Optimise Lite

Professional version & feature list available @ www.DragonByte-Tech.com (http://www.DragonByte-Tech.com)
Priority support for Lite version is handled at the Developers Website.


What does it do?

vB Optimise is intended to optimise vBulletin software by integrating several PHP "cachers" and handling data before vBulletin. This works by encountering and handling data prior to vBulletin in order to skip the arbitary execution that would be more server intensive.

Real-Life Statistics

We've teamed up with some Big Forums to show you the impact of vB Optimise, you can view this public chart which shows both our statistics and theirs:

What does 'Marking As Installed' do ?

* It helps you to stay on top of updates - members who have installed modifications will be notified by us whenever new updates are available.

* For security issues - vbulletin.org will contact all members who have installed a modification whenever a security issue is brought to their attention.

* Marking a modification as installed also helps us know how many people are using our work, giving us extra incentive to provide more features and new modifications.

We appreciate the support!

FAQ

Q: I have WinCache installed, but vB Optimise tells me it's not?
A: WinCache only introduced OpCode support in version 1.1, if you're using version 1.0.x you will need to upgrade.

Q: I'm using the XCache method, flushing doesn't work?
A: If you have XCache authentification, turn the admin option on within vB Optimise Settings, then edit ./vboptimise/config.php and specify your XCache username/password. Alternatively you can disable XCache authentification within php.ini:
xcache.admin.enable_auth = Off Q: I have eAccelerator installed, but vB Optimise tells me it's not?
A: eAccelerator does not provide the caching extension by default, you will need to recompile PHP with additional flags. For more information read eAccelerator documentation located here: http://eaccelerator.net/wiki/CompileConfiguration (Specifically look at: with-eaccelerator-shared-memory)

[squishi]

I am surprised to see the development being resumed for vb 3.8.x (which I use and will never upgrade to vb4).
What are the differences to the v1 version?

[DragonByte Tech]

Sorry, I don't have a complete changelog since v1 since I was not the developer of that version - I've merely taken over development of this version :)

But if I recall, Deceptor told me that v1 had compatibility issues and that v2 has been re-coded from scratch.


Fillip

[3raq4all]

Thank you very much
Beautiful work you can add it to your version 3.8.7
Added for the first time?
I am wondering whether I should recommend installation?

[DragonByte Tech]

Yeah it should work fully with vB 3.8.7 :)


Fillip

[3raq4all]

Can you help me with settings?
My version is PHP 3.8.7
I am afraid of the wrong settings
Please help me to explain the photographer

[DragonByte Tech]

There is no such thing as the Wrong settings :)

If you have a specific query feel free to post it :)


Fillip

[3raq4all]

Opcache Operator

In this option, why he chose?

and
Cache Datastore

yes ? or no ?

[DragonByte Tech]

The "Opcache Operator" is what method of caching you want to use. If it's left on "None", then the mod will not do anything.

If you're not sure, you should pick Filecache (assuming you followed the Readme.txt installation instructions and CHMOD /dbtech/vboptimise/filecache to 0777).

You should turn on the Cache Datastore yeah, that caches things like forums, and vBulletin Options :)


Fillip

[Gadget_Guy]

I purchased the original version... so I want to now switch to this version.

I know I have to re-purchase as I didn't get lifetime updates...

If I uninstall and re-install the lite version what needs to happen once I purchase the paid version of this?

Will I have to uninstall and re-install?

D.

[Gadget_Guy]

Installed and has really made an improvement on my site, even just using FileCache.

Going to look into switching to XCache but it is well worth the price.

Fillip

Sir, first of all there is no Readme.txt! Can you please put a simple tutorial about each options, because I am new on here and I dont know about any previouse versions!

I did install it, and after running a few test on online webpage testers, not on one but many, my pages were loading slowe than befor! and I did use the FILECACHING options, and did CHMOD the vboptimise filecache folder to 0777.. Still slower.. What could be wrong maybe,,, the onkly thing I had a red cross over in the settings, were my AVATAR URL.. thats it

[DragonByte Tech]

Sorry, it's called "Installation or Upgrade.txt".

The tutorial about each option is written on the options themselves, however I will ask our documentation writer to prioritise writing a full manual for vB Optimise :)

If page speed is slower after using Filecache, then your server's harddrives may be too slow so that bottleneck shifts from MySQL (waiting for queries to load) to the HDD (waiting for the drive to load the cache files).

If you do not have the possibility to request your host to install and configure an opcode cacher like APC or XCache (I recommend APC since it's easier to install) then unfortunately vB Optimise cannot help you :(

[Simon Lloyd]

I have xcache installed but when i enable it in your mod i can't do anything else in admincp (well not much), i have to disable hooks via includes/config.php, the error i get is:
Warning: xcache_get() [function.xcache-get]: XCache var cache was not initialized properly. Check php log for actual reason in [path]/dbtech/vboptimise/includes/operators/xcache.php on line 21

Filecache works fine but i'd like to use xcache, any ideas?

[DragonByte Tech]

You'll need to contact your host, this is an issue with your server setup :)


Fillip

[Simon Lloyd]

Can you eloborate on what we should be looking for, as i understand it all i had to do was recompile apache with the xcache enabled?

[DragonByte Tech]

I can't - as per the error message you need to either investigate yourself or have your host investigate the php error log for the full error. I can't tell you anything more than that :(


Fillip

[SIINSI]

Hello, this seems like a great idea. Out of curiosity, will it work with vb 3.7?

[DragonByte Tech]

We've not tested it on vBulletin 3.7 - you're free to try it, but we cannot guarantee it will work.

Fillip

[ChiNa]

Saved 24000 showen in my Statistics! Is it good?

If yes, then its usefull Addon when its from an Optimizing family! Thanks a lot!

[Mark_Zuckerberg]

SORRY WRONG POST I HAVE POSTED ON THE WRONG THREAD :(

[DragonByte Tech]

You've posted the same question in all 3 vB Optimise threads, we cannot help you when we don't know what version you're running.

Fillip

[SIINSI]

I have xcache installed but when i enable it in your mod i can't do anything else in admincp (well not much), i have to disable hooks via includes/config.php, the error i get is:

I am getting the same error as well in vb 3.8.7, here is what my error log shows. Both eAccelerator and Zend optimizer have been disabled and only xcache enabled. Where do I get this function from?

I am running vB 3.8 and get the following when I try to enable eaccelerator I get the error message saying it is not installed or configured correctly, what do I need to change?

Ensure the eaccelerator_get and eaccelerator_put functions are available. Apparently these have to be explicitly compiled - contact your host for more information.

Fillip
Ok, thank you I will try that.

[hpidriver]

My host has replied with the following:
all the necessary options are installed by default and some are disabled via php.ini

I see these functions are not disabled in php.ini which means these functions are already enabled.
Any other suggestions?

[DragonByte Tech]

Run test1.php then test2.php from the attached zip and see what the output is.

[DragonByte Tech]

Check the Cache Settings and ensure you've enabled caching for everything.

thank you for reply. if you mean Cache Settings this Memcached Setting in config.php VBulletin file, i had enable that before. its our config.php cache setting:



// ****** DATASTORE CACHE CONFIGURATION *****
// Here you can configure different methods for caching datastore items.

// ******** DATASTORE PREFIX ******
// If you are using a PHP Caching system (APC, XCache, eAccelerator) with more
// than one set of forums installed on your host, you *may* need to use a prefix

// This works in a similar manner to the database table prefix.
// $config['Datastore']['prefix'] = '';

// It is also necessary to specify the hostname or IP address and the port the server is listening on

i had enable all of Cache setting like Cache Styles and Cache Templates and Cache Datastore in that menu before but we have problem yet and i see Resource Statistics is null!
my question is, when we use Memcache instead of Filecache on Opcache Operator menu, what should i see in Resource Saving Statistic menu?
and please tel me Memcache is better or Filecache for the high speed loading of site?
note: my forum is hosted on linux dedicated server and use litespeed.

[dizzynation]

Does this help use less RAM on hosting servers?

[dizzynation]

Installed and Nominated, but after enabling I run a test and it says my vbo is turned off.....

[Edit] Ok i turned on filecache, and set to writable, but when I run a test it says AJAZ not available

note: my forum is hosted on linux dedicated server and use litespeed.Memcache is better, but it's a gigantic pain in the arse to set up as you yourself have experienced. I cannot help you diagnose problems in your Memcache setup :(

I recommend trying out APC cache - Memcache is only better if it's running on a separate server entirely.

Does this help use less RAM on hosting servers?No, it will take up more RAM in order to speed up your site :)
Unused RAM is wasted RAM, so you will always want your RAM filled up with data so that the server doesn't have to query MySQL (hard disk lookup) as that is orders of magnitude slower than reading from RAM.

To put things into perspective, DDR-3 SDRAM has a maximum transfer rate of 6400 MB/s. The fastest SSDs on the market (discounting RAID setups) has a maximum transfer rate of 550 MB/s.

You shouldn't ask for anything to take up less RAM for this reason :)

I fixed it -

My server keeps shutting down because my ram is getting used to much, so I thought this would lower the use, Godaddy server support keeps telling my to lower my ram usage

What Apache handler are you using? If you're using WHM, you can find it by going to PHP & SUexec Configuration.

I use Plesk 11 and web Server is:
Server API LiteSpeed V6.1
with 1 cpu dedicated license.
our site is down after going some hours!

[DragonByte Tech]

Are you able to observe memory / cpu usage (such as via top in SSH) before the site goes down?

I assume just rebooting your server / VPS brings it back, but then it goes back down?

Fillip

[gabrielt]

Hi, how can I measure the number of queries before and after installing this, so I can monitor the performance before and after installing your product? We run a huge forums and I am seriously considering the Pro version; if the Lite works as expected, I don't see why not buying the Pro -- I believe it is an investment that is worthwhile (since we run a for-profit forums). Thanks.

[gabrielt]

Does this help use less RAM on hosting servers?

NO, it is the oposite, it uses more RAM, so data is chached in RAM and vBulletin doesn't need to query the database server, speeding-up vBulletin and lowering load at the MySQL server.

[gabrielt]

Never mind -- I found out that you already added this option inside vB Optimise v2. I've just installed and will post here some results. Thanks.

[DragonByte Tech]

We'll await your results :)

vB Optimise v2.5.1
Feature: New Administrator Permission: Can Administer vB Optimise

Fillip

[gabrielt]

Fillip,

Thank you a lot for adding this feature that I've requested on your support forums. That is simply awesome, as we have several admins, and I don't want them messing aroung with vB Optimiser's configurations.

As for the performance... I can only say: wow! I am attaching a screenshot from our MRTG, showing the traffic on our MySQL server. See the traffic before and after... You can clearly see what happened from week 8 on...

Thanks a lot my friend, I am a proud paying supporter of your work.

vB Optimise v2.5.3
Feature: Improved error messages for APC, XCache and eAccelerator when the extension is not configured correctly

Fillip

[Mecho]

when i have this addon enabled i can not save anything in admin panel. it will shows an blank page in admin cp and mod cp.

Any idea?

[DragonByte Tech]

That usually means you've selected an opcode cacher that you either don't have installed or is not correctly configured.

Disable hooks by adding define('DISABLE_HOOKS', true); to your config.php file and change the cacher.


Fillip

[Simon Lloyd]

Hi I have this installed and I have apc set as the cache, recently apc caused an issue with cPanel, cPanel techs disabled apc and I can now access cPanel, however I cannot access my forum either front end or admincp I get this error Fatal error: APC not installed in [path]/includes/class_datastore.php on line 386

I have disabled hooks in /includes/config.php but that hasn't changed a thing, I've even tried different browsers and get the same error.

What do I need to do to get this removed from database...etc in order to get my forum back?

[DragonByte Tech]

Add define('DISABLE_HOOKS', true); to your config.php file beneath <?php, then alter the vBOptimise setting to Filecache, then remove the config.php file edit.


Fillip

[Simon Lloyd]

As I stated in my post disabling hooks in config.php did not allow me in!

[DragonByte Tech]

Then disable APC from the Filecache option further down in the config.php

Fillip

[Simon Lloyd]

Ah yes, forgot about that, that did the trick thanks :)

Update

Hotfix: PHP 5.4 Compatibility fixes


This does not guarantee the mod is error free on PHP 5.4, but it will take care of the reported errors. Thank you all for your reports :)

For some reason $num is not being set on our site and we end up with just this showing in the What's Going On section:

MySQL Queries vB Optimise has saved this forum:

with no number after it. We do have Display Total Saved Resources turned on as well as Resource Saving Statistics. On the admincp Resource Statistics page we do see the number of queries that vBO has saved the site but no number is shown on the forum homepage in the What's Going On section.

Any suggestions? Thanks.

Can you please try disabling all other mods to see if there's a conflict somewhere?

I just found out that I'm on suPHP, which means there are no cachers that play nice with my server. Is it essentially worth it, then, for me to have it installed on my board in my situation? I notice that even though my pages load within a fraction of second, it still tells me it took over a million seconds to generate. :eek:

EDIT: I noticed I also get the no "queries saved" issue mentioned by the above poster.

[Digital Jedi]

On an unrelated note, I noticed there are a few unencoded ampersands in the footer links. They're throwing up a number of validation errors. Just a heads up.

[DragonByte Tech]

Memcache doesn't care about suPHP, though it's less efficient than internal cachers like APC and XCache.

I currently have it set to Filecache. Is this vBulletin's internal caching system, or is the product essentially doing nothing for me?

[DragonByte Tech]

It writes the cache to .php files inside the /dbtech/vboptimise/filecache folder (assuming it's writeable, unsure about the exact path but it's written in the description of the cache chooser I believe :)

That would explain why flushing the cache seems to actually fix problems with other installs. :)

Thanks. From what I can tell it seems to be working, except for the statistics, which puts the page generation time in billions of seconds.

I just installed this, it looks great, but can i get some help.
The only option i can use for the Opcache Operator is: Filecache
I've done that and moved the avatars/attachments ect...

Everything is ok on the Optimal Settings page:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2013/12/3.jpg (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=147704&d=1388421841)

But when i go to the system test it shows this:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2013/12/4.jpg (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=147702&d=1388421361)

And the Daily Resource Statistics is blank:

Is this doing anything on my site, or should i remove it?

Thanks

This looks like the files may not have been uploaded correctly, or the /dbtech/vboptimise/filecache folder wasn't CHMODed to 0777.

Can you please re-upload the files by dragging and dropping the contents of the upload folder to your forums' folder, and ensure that directory is writeable?

Fillip

[Dj Smuggla]

Thanks for you reply, but i've done that & it's still the same.
There were a lot of php files in the /dbtech/vboptimise/filecache folder so it must have the permission to write to it.
Im just not shore if its doing anything on my site.

[Digital Jedi]

Silly question, but did you actually flush the cache first? I know I had some troubles with the initial installation that cleared up when I simply ran that feature. Actually, I usually have to flush the cache each time I install a DBTech product.
