title: php_memcache.dll for 64 bit wampserver with either php 5.3.13 or 5.4.3
body: <p>Okay, so far ive been googeling and trying to find a solution for over 6 hours. normally i dont post questions because i feel the answer should be findable, but here goes nothing.</p>
  
  <p>I need to work with PHP code that has implemented the memcache class. I use wampserver 2.2 as 64 bit install, with apache 2.2.2, php 5.4.3 (installed 5.3.13 too, to see if i could fix it in that version) and mysql 5.5.24</p>
  
  <p>i have run the memcache service with both the memcached-win64-1.4.4-14.zip <a href="http://s3.amazonaws.com/downloads.northscale.com/memcached-win64-1.4.4-14.zip">link</a> and the memcached-1.2.6-win32-bin.zip <a href="http://code.jellycan.com/files/memcached-1.2.6-win32-bin.zip">link</a> </p>
  
  <p>I am now at a point where the feedback from wampserver i get is the following when (re)starting the apache module -> mem_cache_module, using  the answers from a similar thread on stackoverflow.com/questions/3894065/php-memcache-dll-vc6-x64), in combination with php 5.3.13 64 bit: </p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>PHP Startup: memcache: Unable to initialize module
    Module compiled with module API=20090626
    PHP   compiled with module API=20100525
    These options need to match</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>This is a lot further than i got with the other options, most (or all) results i can come up with seem to redirect to either a 32 bit dll (which i cant use since my wampserver is 64 bit) or with the wrong php version or api version (compilation date?) .. i do not think i am able to compile my own library to solve this.</p>
  
  <p>I have added *extension=php_memcache.dll* to both php.ini files for both php versions and the dll files have been placed into the correct php/php5.x.x/ext/ folders of the wamp server</p>
  
  <p>my assumption so far is that i need the php_memcache.dll compilated for 64 bit (x64) for php 5.3.13 on the 25th of may, 2010. That or i need to install a php version matching the binairy compiled on the 26th of june, 2009.</p>
  
  <p>Do any of you have a soltion to my specific dillemma? Any help will be greatly appriciated.</p>
