Guest Posted August 9, 2005 Posted August 9, 2005 Cache is ... Memory that holds copies of recently accessed data. Several Web browsers keep recently viewed pages in a cache so users can return to them quickly without suffering network delays.
Guest Posted August 9, 2005 Posted August 9, 2005 so is it a good idea to turn this to "true" in configurations? and do i leave the cache directory as"/tmp/"? thanks sheep
Guest Posted August 9, 2005 Posted August 9, 2005 I'm not entirely sure, hopefully someone can tell you the right route to take. np!
OceanRanch Posted August 9, 2005 Posted August 9, 2005 The oscommerce implementation of cache will actually create a file snapshot of the page (normally just your categories and a few other "boxes".). Unless you have a performance problem because of a LARGE number of categories and sub_categories it is recommended that you leave the cache set to false. If you do need the cache feature enabled, you need to make sure that the directory you'll be caching to is writable. If you leave the cache path empty it will create the cache files in your catalog folder. HTH Tom
