Hi,
I just turned on the query cache by modifying its size and limit and restarting the server. However queries aren't being stored to it: Variable_name Value Qcache_free_blocks 1 Qcache_free_memory 10477008 Qcache_hits 0 Qcache_inserts 0 Qcache_lowmem_prunes 0 Qcache_not_cached 3759 Qcache_queries_in_cache 0 Qcache_total_blocks 1 I've found http://dev.mysql.com/tech-resources/articles/mysql-query-cache.html which says the qcache_not_cached variable is the number of queries which were either not SELECT's or have SQL_NO_CACHE specified so I ran several selects (selected records in a few tables using Query Browser and refreshed a few web pages hitting the db). None of the queries have the no cache option specified. What else would prevent queries from getting into the cache? Kathy Mazur Worden Prairie Area Library System
