# WP 7.0-beta1 and opcache

    - WordPress: 7.0-beta1
    - php 8.5
    - opcache enabled (file)
 * The site health tests the existence of opcache in includes/class-wp-site-health.
   php:
 *     ```wp-block-code
       2803: if ( function_exists( 'opcache_get_status' ) ) 
       ```
   
 * But [opcache_get_status](https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.opcache-get-status.php)“
   will not return any information about the file cache”. It returns false and site
   health reports “Opcode cacheDisabled”.
 * Is this check right? Searching the internet I get many answers about activating
   opcache. Most of them are about activating “opcache file cache”.

 * Hi [@hupe13](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hupe13/), you’ve diagnosed this
   correctly. It’s a bug.
 * `opcache_get_status()` intentionally returns `false` in `file_cache_only` mode(
   PHP documents this). So when only file-based opcache is active, WordPress incorrectly
   reports it as disabled.
 * The fix is to fall back to `opcache_get_configuration()`, which does work in 
   file-cache-only mode, and check for `opcache.enable`, `opcache.file_cache`, and`
   opcache.file_cache_only` being set. Worth opening a [Trac ticket](https://core.trac.wordpress.org/).
