My host installed xcache on my dedicated server, and I then told vboptimise to use xcache using admincp. After that, the forum blew up, throwing these errors: Warning: xcache_get() [function.xcache-get]: XCache var cache was not initialized properly. Check php log for actual reason in...

Duh! I was logged in as another admin. Sorry. While I have you, though, I switched the opcache operator to memcache because the host installed it on my server for me. Is that better or worse than APC?

vboptimise has DISAPPEARED from my admincp. Strangest thing ever. What could have happened?

The APC issue was a host issue. That's fixed now. However, the "filecache" option in config.php with vboptimise set up to use APC is definitely the fastest setting. I don't know why. Unfortunately, it results in the missing style chooser that I mentioned earlier on. Any idea of why enabling the...

Total mystery. This setting definitely slows my site down. Any idea of why?

Thanks for those settings. A different/related issue: My host, when upgrading PHP to 5.3.x, forgot to reinstall APC. He did that just now, but now vboptimise gives this message when I click "system test": vB Optimise is currently offline. Please enable and configure vB Optimise to run a...

How much memory should be allocated on a server machine with 8 gigs of RAM? And exactly how do I allocate the memory? Thanks.

If vboptimise is configured to use APC, as it is on my forum, is the vB_Datastore_APC setting in config.php even necessary? Required? What happens if I comment that out and comment out the datastore filecache?

I have vboptimise configured to use APC. Given this, what is the optimal way to set up the config.php file? What I find subjectively is that the forum works fastest when $config['Datastore']['class'] = 'vB_Datastore_Filecache'; is enabled However, when this is enabled, the style chooser at...

Thank you. However, now there are two lines at the bottom of every page of my forum linking to your software and homepage. How do we get rid of this? Thanks.

Actually I think this might be happened since I turned on "Use Mailqueue System" Is there a fix as a result?

What is the i.s.s.w. "security" mod? Can you be a little bit clearer, please?

When I access DBTech - vBMail from AdminCP -> Manage Mailing LIsts, Manage Keywords, Repair Cache, I get these messages: Fatal error: Class 'VBMAIL' not found in /home/<site>/public_html/forum/dbtech/vbmail/actions/admin/mailinglist.php on line 19 Fatal error: Class 'VBMAIL' not found in...

I pasted a newsletter composed in Dreamweaver into the vbmail edit window and did a test send. There's way too much space above the newsletter when received in the email client. There's also too much spacing between elements of the newsletter itself. Why is this and how to fix? The same...
