Redis setup not working

[bzero]

Hello everyone,

I follow this instruction to enable Redis for my site, but it doesn't work, there is no message output on redis-cli monitor console.
https://bagisto.com/en/redis-for-cache-management-for-bagisto/

I am using v1.3.
How could i know Bagisto is taking redis configuration? or is there any step which is not mentioned in document?

Thank you.

Hi @bzero
Please run
php artisan config:cache after making the changes as mentioned in the article.
then to check whether redis is working use this command and browse your website:-

redis-cli monitor

do let us know if you face any issues.

Hello @bzero

1. We have checked your redis issue and redis is working fine on our end with this server configuration.

   • redis = 5.0.3
   • RAM = 2GB
   • OS = ubuntu 18.04LTS (Debian)

2. We recommend to use redis as both CACHE_DRIVER as well as SESSION_DRIVER for bagisto, therefore you need to modify your .env accordingly setting CACHE_DRIVER = redis, SESSION_DRIVER= redis

3. After any modification in .env, remove <bagisto_root>/bootstrap/cache/config.php file and then flush the bagisto previous configuration, cache and route by "php artisan config:cache", "php artisan cache:clear", "php artisan route:clear".

4. Also check for the predis is installed properly by composer if not then run "composer require predis/predis" in bagisto root directory.

Thanks and Regards
