I have a local WP site that depends on Memcached. The readme says "Use memcached and the PECL memcache extension to provide a backing store for the WordPress object cache."
As a far as I can tell, my config meets those requirements. But when I attempt to access the application, I get:
Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Class 'Memcache' not found in. . .
I'm running php 7.3 installed via Homebrew, and Memcached 3.1.3, installed via PECL. Memcached 3.1.3 says it's compatible with php 7.3, and I followed these instructions to add Memcache as an extension to my php server. If I start php via Homebrew, I can see the Memcache process when I run ps -ef | grep -i memcached, and the config appears when I run php --info | grep memcached\\. But, I can't connect to Memcached through my Valet app or through Telnet.
If I run Memcached through Homebrew, I get a different version, 1.5.13, which I think predates php 7.3. As I understand Homebrew only installs stable releases. When the Homebrew Memcache is running I can connect via Telnet, but not through the Valet app.
What's different about the Homebrew install of Memcached? I assume Homebrew must somehow make Memcache externally accessible but I don't know what's going on behind the scenes.
