I looked further into the problem after you mentioned the library.
It's for PHP and the extension was not installed. I confirmed that
Memcached is indeed running (as a service) but it's not communicating
with PHP.

Following instructions from the PHP manual, I typed in the command...

pecl install memcached

... Everything starts good, but at the end, I receive the error

"The DSP memcached.dsp does not exist"

I also tried looking for php_memcached.dll to just place it in the
extensions directory, but for the life of me, I cannot find it
anywhere online.

If you have ever done this for Windows, could you please just walk me
through how you did it?


Thanks for your help and direction.

Isaac
