I apologize for my bad English I hope to be understandable  
PHP OpCache is not configured correctly. For better performance we recommend using the following settings in php.ini:

I have to configure OpCache  
opcache.enable = 1  
opcache.enable\_cli = 1  
opcache.interned\_strings\_buffer = 8  
opcache.max\_accelerated\_files = 10000  
opcache.memory\_consumption = 128  
opcache.save\_comments = 1  
opcache.revalidate\_freq = 1

I move to the directory

etc / php / 7.0 / apache2

I run nano php.ini and edit the parameters

but when I run nextcloud it does not accept the changes by letting me see the message that tells me to change the php.ini

opcache.enable = 1  
opcache.enable\_cli = 1  
opcache.interned\_strings\_buffer = 8  
opcache.max\_accelerated\_files = 10000  
opcache.memory\_consumption = 128  
opcache.save\_comments = 1  
opcache.revalidate\_freq = 1

but they are already modified 🤕

The second screen’s output shows `;opcache.enable=1` which means the line is commented. You need to remove the `;` in front of all the parameters listed in order to “activate” them.

Also, have a look at [this thread](https://help.nextcloud.com/t/the-php-opcache-is-not-properly-configured/36147) as there are multiple answers in there already.
