[FIXED] Why am I getting session_start(): Cannot find save handler 'memcached' - session startup failed on google app engine?

Issue

I configured php.ini using this following code:

session.save_handler = memcached
session.save_path = "127.0.0.1:11211"

Can anyone please tell why am I still getting this error?

Solution

I think the issue is your save_path variable.

Try this :

session.save_handler = memcached
session.save_path = "127.0.0.1:11211"

Also check this :

$memcache = new Memcache;
$memcache->connect('localhost', 11211) or die ("Could not connect");

are you able to connect or not?

Hope it helps!!
