Memcache

[XHyperDEVX]

Hello, I have just installed Nextcloud in Docker and now it wants me to activate Memcache. I have no idea how to do this, I spent the last hours trying out some things and tutorials, but always failed to install any php modules because they were not available in the container...

that was already in my config.php:
'memcache.local' => '\\OC\\Memcache\\APCu',

Can someone explain to me step by step how to install memcache in docker? all the tutorials on the internet seem to be for standalone nextclouds only.

thanks a lot!

Hello,

Here is what i added to my config.php :

  'memcache.distributed' => '\\OC\\Memcache\\Redis',
  'memcache.locking' => '\\OC\\Memcache\\Redis',
  'redis' => 
  array (
    'host' => '<DbHostName>',
    'password' => '',
    'port' => 6379,
  ),

Take care to set your own

@AceDenghar do i have to install anything specific for 'host' => '<DbHostName>',? dbhostname, should i create a second mariadb/mysql/postgre db for it?

[AceDenghar]

Oups !!

This is not the db hostname !

But the name of redis container. Sorry.

in my docker-compose.yml i use to name containers.

container_name: .......

So this is what you have to set

@AceDenghar Thank you! I have now also installed redis as a single container, changed your code accordingly and it works! Now just one more thing: Can I install the redis server IN the nextcloud container so that both are in one container?

[AceDenghar]

Hey ! Good news !

About 'install' redis server 'in' the Nextcloud container,I think you should make your own image to achieve that.

I use multiple containers (Nextcloud, MariaDb and Redis) in the same docker-compose.yml file.

You can consult mine in this tipic (still need help... 😥) to have an example.

Ps : sorry for my English.

@AceDenghar Okay thanks, I'll have a look.

Another question, I just wanted to set up the cronjob for Nextcloud, then I realized that in the nextcloud docker image cronjob is not in it at all????

crontab: command not found

Why not?

[AceDenghar]

Personally, I use Cron of the host to run this command :

docker exec -u www-data <myNextcloudContainer> php -f /var/www/html/cron.php

[XHyperDEVX]

right. that should work. but why isn't cronjob simply in the image?

[XHyperDEVX]

@AceDenghar And how can I fix this?
The current PHP memory limit is below the recommended value of 512MB.
PHP is not where it would be in the standalone installation, in /etc/php...

[AceDenghar]

You are now talking about many configuration subjects on this threads wich should be dedicated to memcache and should be closed because it's solved.

For your last question have a look on the description of this project, PHP limit and other details of the configuration are mentionned.

Thanks and sorry!
