Both platforms are used in conjunction with apache 2.2 and mod_fcgid + php-fcgi. On linux opcache seems to work just fine, but on windows (Windows Server 2008, php NTS, VC11 binary) it does not seem to work. If I dump the settings I get: Array ( [directives] => Array ( [opcache.enable] => 1 [opcache.enable_cli] => [opcache.use_cwd] => 1 [opcache.validate_timestamps] => 1 [opcache.inherited_hack] => 1 [opcache.dups_fix] => [opcache.revalidate_path] => [opcache.log_verbosity_level] => 4 [opcache.memory_consumption] => 67108864 [opcache.interned_strings_buffer] => 8 [opcache.max_accelerated_files] => 20000 [opcache.max_wasted_percentage] => 0.05 [opcache.consistency_checks] => 0 [opcache.force_restart_timeout] => 180 [opcache.revalidate_freq] => 2 [opcache.preferred_memory_model] => [opcache.blacklist_filename] => [opcache.max_file_size] => 0 [opcache.error_log] => [opcache.protect_memory] => [opcache.save_comments] => 1 [opcache.load_comments] => 1 [opcache.fast_shutdown] => 1 [opcache.enable_file_override] => [opcache.optimization_level] => 2147483647 ) [version] => Array ( [version] => 7.0.4-dev [opcache_product_name] => Zend OPcache ) [blacklist] => Array ( ) ) But dumping the status shows that the cache is not enabled: Array ( [opcache_enabled] => [cache_full] => 1 [restart_pending] => 1 [restart_in_progress] => [memory_usage] => Array ( [used_memory] => 63439832 [free_memory] => 48 [wasted_memory] => 3668984 [current_wasted_percentage] => 5.4672122001648 ) [interned_strings_usage] => Array ( [buffer_size] => 4194304 [used_memory] => 2549912 [free_memory] => 1644392 [number_of_strings] => 83780 ) [opcache_statistics] => Array ( [num_cached_scripts] => 328 [num_cached_keys] => 700 [max_cached_keys] => 32531 [hits] => 221276 [start_time] => 1397470295 [last_restart_time] => 1397480294 [oom_restarts] => 1 [hash_restarts] => 0 [manual_restarts] => 0 [misses] => 3071052 [blacklist_misses] => 0 [blacklist_miss_ratio] => 0 [opcache_hit_rate] => 6.7209585436202 ) ) The phpinfo page also shows all opcache settings and lists "Opcode Caching" as "Disabled". Maybe I'm overseeing something here. Any hints on what could be wrong?

With Apache on Windows, you should be using the TS build of PHP. You said you were using the NTS build, which is what you'd use with IIS. Also, try setting `enable_cli=1` On Thu, May 15, 2014 at 6:15 AM, Nicolai Scheer wrote: > Hi, > > I'm currently testing opcache for php 5.5.12 on linux and windows.

Since fastcgi should just run php-cgi.exe I tried to run php-cgi.exe myself from the command line. So I fetched myself the phpinfo stuff in two ways: php.exe -i > cli.txt php-cgi.exe -i > cgi.htm Both files report the opcache as "Up and running". Since apache runs as local system account it might have something to do with not being able to create the shared memory realm? But usually the local system account is as powerful as it gets...
