new mwf/var/cache directory is empty?

[BerkeleyEdu]

I do not see any files in 'mwf/var/cache' -- shouldn't I see something in there after browsing the site? I had the owner changed to "apache" and that got rid of the 'PHP Warning: mkdir(): Permission denied ' error.

drwxrwxr-x 3 apache webmaster 4096 Sep 7 13:09 var -sh-3.2$ ls -l var total 16 drwxrw-r-- 3 apache webmaster 4096 Sep 7 13:09 cache -rwxrwxr-x 1 apache webmaster 198 Aug 10 10:36 README

What else do I need to do to get the cache working?

You will only see stuff in mwf/var/cache if you visit something that uses the cache. Typically, this would be a page that uses the image compressor or a page that uses the Feed API.

Makes sense. The image compressor may be a different problem -- have submitted a separate ticket.

The news feed appears to be working but I still do not see cached files. Just noticed this:

; Name of the subdirectory within the cache directory for use by the Feed API cache_name="simplepie"

Maybe I need to have the directory created ahead of time inside of var/cache? I do not have necessary permissions so will need to ask sys adm to mkdir. Should the permissions be the same as the cache directory?

I believe this is all resolved, but if not, go ahead and email me.
