 * Could you please try the development version [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/w3-total-cache/download/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/w3-total-cache/download/)
   and submit a bug submission report if the problem persists?

 * I’m seeing a similar problem, I originally tried using xcache for page/minify/
   db, but nothing was showing as cached in debug. I then switched to disk (enahnced
   where applicable), and now I see queries being cached, but never the page.

 * I downloaded the development version as advised, but the results above are the
   same.

 * I can confirm this behaviour for XCache based caching: According to the debug
   output nothing ever gets cached – Not the minifying, the page and no DB queries,
   even though it is set up to the exact opposite 😛

 * Is xcache properly caching scripts for you? Can you verify in the control panel?
   Are there errors in your apache error log? Are you using fastcgi?

 * XCache itself is working properly, i see lots of cache & variable hits in my 
   monitoring (Munin). Webserver is NGINX and PHP is invoked as (fast)CGI using 
   PHP-FPM.
 * I’ll try the development version tomorrow to see if that maybe fixes the problems.

 * Went back to xcache as well, as thats what I’d like to get working. Using apache(
   not fcgi), xcache is working, I see hits via its admin panel, but still nothing
   showing as cached via w3tc. DB queries and pages both return “Enabled” and “Not
   Cached”.
 * I’m using the most recent dev version.

 * I can confirm this as well. Nginx here. XCache itself is working – I see variable
   hits being counted in the admin panel – but W3T says its not serving from the
   cache (edited SQL info out btw).

 * don’t suppose either of you could share your nginx conf rewrite rules that work
   with w3tc? Looking to migrate to nginx, but not unless I can get w3tc working
   with it.

 * Null_: using XCache-based caching you don’t need the rewrite rules, besides for
   minifying – which are shared in one of the recent threads about it here.
 * Regarding disk-based caching, the rules would have to be adopted – i’ll look 
   into those in the coming days but won’t make any promise if i’ll be able to translate
   them 🙂

 * oh excellent! Now if only we can get xcache-based caching working then 🙂

 * I can’t duplicate this issue. Please edit `lib/W3/Cache/Xcache.php` file:
 * on line 40: `return xcache_set($key, serialize($var), $expire);`
    change to: `
   return xcache_set($key, $var, $expire);` on line 51: `return @unserialize(xcache_get(
   $key));` change to: `return xcache_get($key);`

 * so in my case, I had xcache.var_size left at the default of 0. I changed that,
   and am now seeing the sql queries properly cached via xcache, though my page 
   still isn’t.
 * When making the changes you specified, originally it gave me errors due to var_size
   being 0, once fixed, all of my pages then stop working completely with the changed
   lines.

 * You no longer need to change those lines in light of the fact that xcache was
   improperly configured. See if the caching works after reverting the changes.

 * The caching of sql queries works after the change is reverted, however the page
   caching is still showing as not-cached, shown in my above post.

 * Does page caching work in basic mode?
