Just out of curiosity, what is ScratchR?

Memcached doesn't give errors, it's just that if it's not there then it won't work.
Are you sure you have the memcached server running?

Pretty sure...I followed the instructions to start it and it said it worked.

Strange... Well I do know that the issue you're having is with memcached. Are you sure it's compatible with the version of PHP you have?

It should work...
I'll try on Windows sometime.

If you can get it on Mac OS X, please tell me how you did it. I had very little success myself.
It's pretty hard!

Re: Installing ScratchR locally

It's not that bad, at least on Windows. I could probably do it on a Mac, if I had one.

Me neither, I used the one I mentioned earlier. Maybe that was the problem...
I'll find out this weekend, when I try again!

So use that one I suggested a while ago instead?

It's archaic and broken.

And yes use the Assembla one

I don't know either, unless you write down every step in order you did.

You need php_memcache.dll, I believe.

Re: Installing ScratchR locally

Yeah, PHP ScratchR is a tricky thing to work with. Mostly because it uses old version of PHP, can't be easily installed (whereas Django/Python applications can be installed by running manage.py syncdb, though they do require mod_wsgi) and seems lacking in documentation. In the last checkout, I have seen unfinished methods, models with no visible application, etc...

I want to re-write ScratchR for Django/Python. I already started developing models. If you want to join in, first go to my Gitorious repository, and ask me for push access (you'll need a Gitorious account). You'll then be able to contribute. Right now it's going slow, with me being the only developer.[/offtopic-plug]

Yeah, it is very difficult to work with. I looked through the code, and couldn't find why I was getting a blank page. It would be nice if future versions had an installer or something.
