Another day, another "Error establishing a database connection."

Could someone tell me why Caching is not on by default for blogging platform?

Because there are 2 very hard things in IT : naming things, cache invalidation and off-by-one errors.

I am not making this up. Easier to leave the cache off.

Well yes in but in the context of a simple blogging platform i cant think of a reason why it would be a concern. Most blogging platform are no longer a "blog", but a full feature CMS where caching is hard due to all sort of reasons.

Spell checkers etc.
