Which version of memcached are you using? I seem to remember that those error messages are typical of older memcached versions on windows. I'm running 1.2.5 and I have never encountered that error.
Oh look, here's me getting that problem and solving it, perhaps that helps: http://groups.google.com/group/memcached/browse_thread/thread/9a90d63f5f164fcf/7f10b2d6e65a5656?pli=1 I'm still running 1.2.5 though and I don't have the problem, you can grab a binary here: http://code.google.com/p/beitmemcached/ I was gonna recommend 1.2.6 that you can get here: http://code.jellycan.com/memcached/, but I just tested it and remembered why I wasn't running it, it has a dependency to MSVCR71.DLL for some weird reason, 1.2.5 doesn't have that. You also have this guy who started seeing the problem after installing some firewall: http://groups.google.com/group/memcached/browse_thread/thread/8ffab363145ed61e /Henrik On Fri, Feb 12, 2010 at 10:02, tvinod <tvi...@gmail.com> wrote: > im trying to run memcached on my windows 7 machine within a rails > project and it errors out.. > > <936 connection closed. > <940 new client connection > <940 set mem-development:c222efbcfc08b4850198cd1eea610f76 0 0 217 > >940 STORED > Failed to write, and not due to blocking: Resource temporarily > unavailable > <940 connection closed. > > the same rails project works perfectly fine on vista and linux. i saw > somewhere it could be due to firewall issue. but i checked to make > sure memcached is allowed in windows firewall. > > any ideas? > > thanks >
