The service “memcached” appears to be down.

I just installed memcacheD on EasyApache 4 and enabled the extension for PHP7.1. However, memcached keeps getting killed every now and then. I enabled tailwatchd and I keep getting these emails that I'm sharing below. I'm very new to this and I'm keen to learn. Appreciate any help that I could get.

  Hi @shahz When memcached crashes is anything output to the system log? You can see this here: /var/log/messages
  Thanks!

  Hi @cPanelLauren there is no new messages file in that directory, the latest one is about a week ago. I've been tinkering with this ever since I started this ticket and I think I might have found out something. While I get these emails from checkservd continuously, when I run the systemctl status memcached, it still shows as running: [root@shahz ~]# systemctl status memcached ? memcached.service - Memcached Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/memcached.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled) Active: active (running) since Fri 2019-01-18 18:44:58 UTC; 2h 3min ago Main PID: 5512 (memcached) CGroup: /system.slice/memcached.service ??5512 /usr/bin/memcached -u nobody -p 11211 -m 1GB -c 1024 -l 127.0.0.1,::1
  Maybe checkservd is looking for a different memcached instance? Probably the one based on the old PECL installed type? I do understand that memcached is still in experimental PHP7.2, right?
