SOLVED Do I edit /usr/local/lib/php.ini to setup Opcache

Hi all,

Can somebody advise whether I need to edit the /usr/local/lib/php.ini file to configure Opcache or can I copy the config out of there and put it at the bottom of the MultiPHP Editor ea-php56 PHP INI?

I'd really rather not have them so separate.. and also I'm worried editing usr-local-lib php ini is the wrong thing to do since I thought all changes to the PHP INI should be made via MultiPHP?

Could someone tell me how I should be going about it?

 

Hi @cPanelMichael,

I have set up my server using SuPHP as PHP Handler, and then "applied" the PHP-FPM option to the account which started OPcache to show "cache hits" whereby before it didn't. So far, so good (i hope). I hope I haven't set this up wrong so far (since I know SuPHP isn't compatible, but PHP-FPM is?)

I ended up editing /usr/local/lib/php.ini and uncommenting all the OPcache lines, which I'm now not sure this is what is supposed to be done?

I looked for your recommended opcache.ini file in /opt/cpanel/ea-php56/root/etc/php.d/ but I'm afraid there are no files in there with 'opcache' in it. Is that a sign that I've already configured OPcache wrong? Or do I need to manually create it and move all OPcache config lines into there and OPcache automatically uses it?

 

Thanks @cPanelMichael!

I re-commented out the OPcache config lines in /usr/local/lib/php.ini and copied them into
/opt/cpanel/ea-php56/root/etc/php.d/zendguard.ini instead.

A note for PHP-FPM, I had to re-Apply the PHP version in MultipPHP Manager for phpinfo to reflect the Directives I changed the values for (Non-php-fpm domains didn't need this extra step).

One last question for you and I'm sorted!

Is the zendguard.ini overwritten across cPanel updates? Will I lose the config I put in there?
