I was wondering if you knew of a good forum or

learn how to Admin mediawiki. Ive been reading over the
the help pages at
mediawiki.org but often they do not address my questions.
My main problem right now is I have installed turck mmcache but I don't know
what do input for server and port? I tried localhost:80 with no success.
Those options are only meaningful for memcached; you shoudln't set them
to anything.
With a result of "Shared memory caching:
Memcached servers: Didn't get
correct memcached response from localhost:80". So I was forced to install
with out the cache option enabled. I added this question to the talk page of
help:installation but have recieved no response.
You shouldn't do anything; the primary benefit of turck mmcache and
other PHP opcode caches is caching the compiled PHP scripts, which
requires no configuration in MediaWiki.
Since parser-cache data can easily overwhelm the small memory caches for
these tools, I recommend against using the experimental options for
caching other data in them unless you really want to do experimentation
and testing to see what is most efficient for you; simply use the
default database caching.
