codeigniter output cache doesn't work?
Two things, as outlined in the documentation:
Warning: Because of the way CodeIgniter stores content for output, caching will only work if you are generating display for your controller with a view.
Perhaps not using the "native" views is an issue?
Additionally:
Note: Before the cache files can be written you must set the file permissions on your application/cache folder such that it is writable.
Are you sure your application/cache
directory has the correct permissions?
Debug this file and check it's actually writing the cache:system/core/Output.php
// Do we need to write a cache file? Only if the controller does not have its// own _output() method and we are not dealing with a cache file, which we// can determine by the existence of the $CI object aboveif ($this->cache_expiration > 0 && isset($CI) && ! method_exists($CI, '_output')){ $this->_write_cache($output);}
This works well for me:
function _output($content) { // Load the base template with output content available as $content $data['content'] = &$content; $this->output->cache(600); $output = $this->load->view('base', $data, true); $this->output->_write_cache($output); echo $output; }
Are you sure your application/cache directory has the correct permissions?
you you to directories application/cache in cpanel , permissions become 777 is OK
