    From Multiple Critical Remotely Exploitable Flaws Discovered in Memcached Caching System
    Note, Centmin Mod installs CSF Firewall by default out of the box and Memcached port 11211 is not whitelisted anymore for public access to port 11211. You can verify this via this grep command on CSF config file /etc/csf/csf.conf and if command returns empty it means no mention of 11211 exists in the config file so memcached port 11211 is not publicly accessible anyway.
    Code (Text):
    grep '11211' /etc/csf/csf.conf

    looks like memcached wasn't installed correctly ? if you ran centmin.sh menu option 10, it will install it again.

    yeah remi repo version has update too. Centmin Mod doesn't use Remi repo for memcached as it has other customisations/optimisations in Memcached not available in yum repo version including special setup for OpenVZ VPSes for more sane memory usage.

    also 123.09beta01 has other intel processor specific optimisations that are optional if you set in persistent config file GENERAL_DEVTOOLSETGCC='y' https://community.centminmod.com/th...ble-to-enable-devtoolset-3-gcc-4-9-in-….9020/

    Done. I'm kind of surprised we don't need to restart nginx.

    MariaDB 5.5/10.x
    centmin.sh menu option 10 restarts php-fpm with memcached php extension and memcached server updates. Memcached you wouldn't need nginx restart unless you are have manually setup memcached at nginx vhost level in your site's nginx vhost.

    Thanks for the update! Upgrade complete.
    I actually had the same issue. memcached -V did not work for me, even though memcached is running fine on my server.

    I had to run /usr/local/bin/memcached -V to get the version number.

    Code (Text):
    # /usr/local/bin/memcached -V
-bash: /usr/local/bin/memcached: No such file or directory


    I have no use for memcache that's why I disabled it in /etc/centminmod/custom_config.inc

    strange you should be able to what you get get for command output for
    Code (Text):
    which memcached
echo $PATH

    example
    Code (Text):
    which memcached
/usr/local/bin/memcached

    Code (Text):
    echo $PATH
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/lib64/ccache:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/root/bin:/root/bin

    Here's my results:
    Code (Text):
    $ which memcached
/usr/bin/which: no memcached in (/usr/lib64/ccache:/usr/lib64/ccache:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/sbin:/root/bin:)

$ echo $PATH
/usr/lib64/ccache:/usr/lib64/ccache:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/sbin:/root/bin:

    in /root/.bashrc there's an export PATH line that you need to manually correct. Backup /root/.bashrc first and then change it to
    Code (Text):
    export PATH="$PATH:/usr/lib64/ccache:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/root/bin"

    then log out of ssh session and backup to very which memcached command
