You can manage the PHP directives on a CloudLinux server using the PHP Selector. You can manage this via cPanel >> Software/services >> Select PHP version. In this tutorial, we are going to discuss the steps to enable Xcache via cPanel for a particular account.
1) You need to check in cPanel if Xcache is enabled or not. Login to cPanel >> Software/Services >> Select PHP Version.
Also check the following directives are existing on the file “/etc/cl.selector/php.conf”
xcache.cacher on/Off
xcache.size –value–
xcache.stat on/Off
2) If the directives are not existing on the file, add the following directives in the file“/etc/cl.selector/php.conf.”
Directive = xcache.cacher
Default = On
Type = bool
Comment = Enable or disable opcode cache. Not available if xcache.size is 0.
Directive = xcache.size
Default = 50M
Type = value
Range = 0 50M 100M
Comment = Total amount of memory used for opcode (*.php) caching. If set to 0 – opcode caching is disabled.
Directive = xcache.stat
Default = On
Type = bool
Comment = Do stat() to check if xcache setting updated.
3) No need to restart any services, go to cPanel >> Software/Services >> Select PHP Version. You will get the following result.
4) Then click the ‘Save’ button to update the changes.
