Ok. It happens when I uncomment out this line in the ini file:

;; install as zend extension (recommended), normally "$extension_dir/xcache.so"
zend_extension = /usr/local/lib/php/extensions/non-debug-non-zts-xxx/xcache.so
; zend_extension_ts = /usr/local/lib/php/extensions/non-debug-zts-xxx/xcache.so
;; For windows users, replace xcache.so with php_xcache.dll
zend_extension_ts = c:/php/extensions/php_xcache.dll
;; or install as extension, make sure your extension_dir setting is correct
; extension = xcache.so
;; or win32:
; extension = php_xcache.dll

:/ Not sure why that happens. But thats what the installation instructions said do. Anyone have any ideas?

--------
Ok It seems like the problem was that I had this set to on:

[xcache.admin]
xcache.admin.enable_auth

I set it to off, and now it seems to be working. Thx for the reply.

Yeah that was exactly what the problem was. The authentication. Thx.

So the cache settings in the config.php file get ignored now, right???

I believe so yeah, you can override datastore caching within the mod :)

vB Optimise v2.5.0:
Feature [DBTech] Advanced Post Thanks / Like Statistics caching
Feature [DBTech] Advanced User Tagging Statistics caching

I got blank pages when upgrade to version v2.5.0
Has it to do with vbSEO Likes or so?

Try adding to config.php directly beneath <?

I'm considering the paid version of this mod but I'm a little concerned at having recently upgraded from the older (lite) release to version 2.4.0 (lite) because I'm seeing almost no change in SQL statistics.

Is this expected?

I also have a problem with the cost of the full version of your mods if I'm honest.

How do you justify charging more than a full vBulletin 4.0 license ($195) for a mod?

Yeah, since the older Lite version and 2.4.0 added no new cache features, only the display of the SQL queries saved :)

v2.5.0 Lite added additional cache if you run APTL or AUT, but don't expect a giant leap in stats there either - it's only the Statistics pages of those mods that are cached.

The Pro version, however, adds Who Has Read Thread and Who Has Visited Forum cache for vB 4.2.0+, which should see a significant boost in stats - that's ignoring all the other benefits that you can read about in the OP :)

vBOptimise is priced the way it is because it has the potential to (and in many cases does) save MUCH more than that over its lifetime (sometimes within a month or two) in increased server fees keeping up with site growth etc. Some of our customers save millions, tens of millions or even over 100 million queries per day, which would all usually translate into increased costs. Thanks to vBO that's not the case.

Obviously our pricing isn't for everyone, that's why we release Lite versions as well, so people who run smaller sites and such can still get much of the benefit of our products :)

Indeed, saves heaps the Pro version saved one of my clients 10 billion cache hits per month or ~3,600 cache hits/s http://vbtechsupport.com/1526/ :D

I have had this installed for a few weeks and I just noticed this on my forum home page...

Does this ever get reset or is it possible that vboptimise has not saved us any queries? All settings are showing as optimal and all test complete successfully.

Also, it may be a coincidence, but since installing, the number of guests has jumped 5 X (hundreds) at any given time. I thought that was strange. For the record I did install a few mods around the same time.

Thanks
