Guest Posted May 13, 2003 Posted May 13, 2003 Hello, Does or has or is anyone using the cache feature in osC? I changed mine to true today and it doesn't seem to do anything. I looked at the directory it listed to write to and no new files or anything were created. Did anyone else have a problem with this? I get no errors or messages. Thanks
Daemonj Posted May 14, 2003 Posted May 14, 2003 The cache's will be built when you you add or edit a category or product via Admin. Be sure that your cache folder is set for /home/[user]/tmp/ and not /tmp/ and be sure the /home/[user]/tmp folder exists and has 777 rights. Using the cache will significantly improve the performance of your site if your categories and products do not change daily. "Great spirits have always found violent opposition from mediocre minds. The latter cannot understand it when a man does not thoughtlessly submit to hereditary prejudices but honestly and courageously uses his intelligence." - A. Einstein
Guest Posted May 14, 2003 Posted May 14, 2003 You said "add or edit" a catagory. What if all the products are entered in the system and I will not be changing any of them? Am I misunderstanding you statement? Do I need to edit them in some way to allow the caching system to help? Thanks
CodeConfused Posted June 25, 2003 Posted June 25, 2003 i'm using a may 18, 2003 cvs snapshot, and am trying to get the cache to work. i set force cookie usage to TRUE. i also set use cache = TRUE then i went into my FTP program and created a /tmp directory in my html folder, and set the permissions to 777. then i told oscommerce in the admin that the cache directory is as follows: /home/usr/websites/www.xyz.com/html/tmp/ the strange thing is that nothing chnaged. no error messages, but also nothing in the new tmp directory, even though i already surfed around on my site since installing it. maybe i specified the wrong directory? maybe i should put only the part of the path that the FTP program shows: /websites/www.xyz.com/html/tmp/ (without the /home/usr) ?
