Settings not taking effect

How exactly do you configure memcached setting in the settings file, i've tried messing around with the settings file but i just can't get it to work, and how to you test if memcached is actually working?

Firstly - use pymemcache - the Python implementation. The C implementation is buggy. Django project has documentation for the cache setup, please have a look.

I'm getting the following error when i add the memcached settings as indicated in the docs: ImproperlyConfigured: Error importing middleware django.contrib.sessions.middleware: "No module named memcache"

Take a look at hosting providers documentation on how to set up memcache for django. In this case you are missing a module indeed.

i followed the memcached setup procedure from the hosting provider, now im getting the following errors: in asbot.log; ImportError: No module named cache_db in server log: VariableDoesNotExist: Failed lookup for key [request] in u'[{}]' what could be the problem, i've switched to using postgres but still the same problem.
