Memcached installation error

Question

when I try to install memcached in windows xp using xampp on the command line:

pecl install memcached

i return this error in my command window:

Error : The DSP memcached.dsp does not exist.

1 - what is the problem?

2 - and if it is impossible to decide how to compile the memcached package, when to download it directly from pecl?

Answer 1

You can look here for the corresponding problem. It seems that there are limited extensions for PHP Windows, and memcached probably was not created for pecl4win.

There is a link to another question on how you can create your own PHP in Windows, otherwise you may ask if anyone else can do the assembly on the mailing list: pecl-dev on lists.php.net
