Details

Message cache setting.

Here are the available CACHE constants, as defined in Defines.php

  • CACHE_ANYTHING - Use anything, as long as it works
  • CACHE_NONE - Do not cache
  • CACHE_DB - Store cache objects in the DB
  • CACHE_MEMCACHED - memcached, must specify servers in $wgMemCachedServers
  • CACHE_ACCEL - APC, APCu, or WinCache (WinCache is only supported by MediaWiki ≤1.42), whichever is available

Note

If you set $wgMainCacheType then the values for $wgParserCacheType and $wgMessageCacheType will inherit it. You do not need to set those variables unless you plan on doing something very advanced.
