Memcached connection failures [2.1]

Rails
1

A production app is generally working well with memcached and Rails
2.1, but we’re seeing this error about 10 times a day:

No connection to server
[RAILS_ROOT]/vendor/rails/activesupport/lib/active_support/vendor/
memcache-client-1.5.0/memcache.rb:663:in `request_setup’

From the logs, it looks for all the world as though memcached hadn’t
been running, but it certainly was. There’s nothing in the memcached
log about this.

Can anyone advise?

Anyone get a solution for this? Im seeing the same thing with a rails
2.1 deploy. Tried with memcache-client gem installed locally and part
of active support and both get this connection problem intermittently.

Consider switching to GitHub - basecamp/libmemcached_store: ActiveSupport::Cache wrapper for libmemcached :wink:
