    I upgraded a site running 2.3.6 to 2.4.2 and now Statcache fails to write to the cache directory.

    File permissions are correct and I've reinstalled and reconfigured the Extra but this has no effect.

    Has anyone experienced a similar issue?

    Has something changed in 2.4.2 that makes it incompatible with Statcache?

    Nothing is recorded in the PHP error logs.

      Seems I made a **** of myself.

      Turns out there is no issue with Statcache, files are being written to the cache directory again.

      The website in question runs through Cloudflare and I suspect requests weren't hitting my server and were served from Cloudflare's cache instead.

      Development mode was enabled on Cloudflare though, I ain't that daft.
