Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-12-03 05:25:26] mhaidar at squiz dot com dot au Description: ------------ memcache extension allows for failover (memcache.allow_failover = 1) and can be used as a session handler (session.save_handler = memcache) Unfortunately when failover happens a notice is thrown at session_start(). session_start() [function.session-start]: php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Name or service not known Failover still works but the page is completed corrupted. The manual is misleading: Quote "memcache.allow_failover boolean Whether to transparently failover to other servers on errors." session_start does not deal with this so we can stay "transparent". ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=53459&edit=1
