Description:
------------
After restarting memcached getExtendedStats() as well as getStats() returns false on the server intermittently for a while. It seems once memcache is in use, the stats are coming back reliably.

Switching back to the latest stable 2.2.6 the issue does not appear.

This was tested with memcached version 1.4.2. It was only tested against a single localhost server.

How to reproduce:
1. Create a simple test script, see below.

2. Restart memcached:
sudo /etc/init.d/memcached restart

3. Hit the test script several times right after restarting memcached. Sometimes stats are returned, sometimes not.



Reproduce code:
---------------
$memcache_obj = new Memcache;
$memcache_obj->addServer('127.0.0.1', 11211);
var_dump($memcache_obj);

$stats = $memcache_obj->getExtendedStats();
var_dump($stats);

$stats = $memcache_obj->getStats();
var_dump($stats);


Expected result:
----------------
If memcached is running, the stats should always be returned.

Actual result:
--------------
Stats are not returned sometimes.

Greetings,

I was experiencing a similar issue on both Ubuntu 10.10 and 
CentOS 6.  An interesting trend I noticed was that the 
intermittent issue would go away - seemingly working itself 
out - about a minute after the memcached restart.  

I can now avoid the issue by doing the following:

Run:
---------------------------------
sudo /etc/init.d/memcached stop

Then run:
---------------------------------
sudo netstat -anp | grep 11211

You will probably get a response similar to the following:
tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:11211             
127.0.0.1:54227             TIME_WAIT   -                   
tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:11211             
127.0.0.1:54224             TIME_WAIT   -                   
tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:11211             
127.0.0.1:54226             TIME_WAIT   -                   
tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:11211             
127.0.0.1:54225             TIME_WAIT   -                   
tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:11211             
127.0.0.1:54223             TIME_WAIT   - 

Once the tcp TIME_WAITs expire and the netstat command 
displays no results (it seems to take approximately 30 
seconds), then run:
--------------------------------
sudo /etc/init.d/memcached start

When I wait for the TIME_WAITs to expire memcached seems to 
work as expected and the intermittent issue no longer 
occurs. 

I'm curious to know if waiting for the TIME_WAITs to expire 
resolves your issue as well.

I hope this helps.

Cheers.

Hi,

I have the same problem on Magento (Zend Framework) when it 
uses memcache.
I declared the bug here : 
http://framework.zend.com/issues/browse/ZF-11544?
page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment
-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=48451

The function getExtendedStats() is buggy and sometimes 
return false, even if memcache servers are online. 

Please give us a feedback and if you can reproduce this bug.

The bug occures with php 5.3.8 on centos.
