What are the current instructions for installing memcached?

I've been attempting to get Memcached working. The server has Centos6.9, with WHM/CPanel. Using PHP 7.0. I did the EasyApache side of things, but I gather that leaves out the PHP side. All the threads I've found on this subject, with instructions, are from 2010, a few from 2013. I suspect those instructions are no longer applicable (2018), especially since some commands involve installing specified versions of packages, which have surely been updated in the last 8 years. Are there any current instructions for implementing Memcached on a WHM/Cpanel server?

  Thanks. Unfortunately that only mentioned the Apache side of things, which is what I already did through EA4. Memcache/d does not show up in PHP though, meaning in php-info there is no mention of memcached. What's the secret?

  Hello, Can you verify the specific commands you used? The installation commands provided for the EA4 experimental RPMS include the PHP extensions: yum install ea4-experimental yum install ea-php##-php-memcache yum install ea-php##-php-memcached
  Thank you.

  I get the following error when trying to install those two ea-php packages... Error: Package: ea-php71-php-memcached-3.0.2-1.1.128.cpanel.x86_64 (EA4-experimental) Requires: libmemcached.so.11()(64bit) Error: Package: ea-php71-php-memcached-3.0.2-1.1.128.cpanel.x86_64 (EA4-experimental) Requires: libmemcachedutil.so.2()(64bit)
  I did a yum install libmemcached and that has installed. Although I see it installed libmemcached-0.31-1.1.el6.x86_64 which I gather is different from libmemcached.so.11 because trying to install ea-php71-php-memcached continues to give the above dependency error in full. In answer to your question... the commands I'd used previously were: yum -y update yum install -y libevent libevent-devel yum install -y memcached yum install -y php-pecl-memcache
  Which was based on instructions here gist.github.com/irazasyed/6066507 and here devdocs.magento.com/guides/v2.0/config-guide/memcache/memcache_centos.html P.S. Is there a way to markup inline code on this forum?

  PHP modules are different. You can use pecl command to install the memcache. # pecl install memcache OR The other way it download the memcache source files and compile it with individual EA-PHP.. # wget

  Hello, Feel free to open a support ticket if you'd like us to take a closer look at that error message, as I've not been able to reproduce that on a test environment. Thank you.
