I have one custom made php & mysql web application , hosted in separate server’s ,in Singapore region . one php server + one mysql db server , both working fine . because , app have read more than the write , So i want to add a one memcache server . memcached server successfully installed and cached the test data on localhost . But i want to use this on other remote web server so i have change in memcached.conf file -l 127.0.0.1 to memcached server private ip 10.x.x.x . On php server , try to connect memcached server but its always shows a HTTP ERROR 500 error page , page isn’t working error .
tried lots of googling this but not helping any thing ! Do i have to install any connector ON PHP app server to connect with memcached server on private ip .

Hi!
You are on the correct path. Once you’ve configured memcached to listen on the private IP address, you need to configure PHP to connect to that IP address for memcached.
Open
/etc/php5/fpm/php.iniin your favorite text editor and update the following settings:Finally, restart php5-fpm so that the changes take effect:
If you still get a 500 error after doing that, check nginx’s error logs (which is where php5-fpm’s errors should go) and see if there are any details in there:
