Just installed php-redis and pecl install redis

Btw, this reads confusing because it’s meant to be the same thing. You probably meant sudo apt-get install php-redis and when you also do pecl… you could end up with the same PHP extension twice on your system.

Usually sudo apt-get install php-redis also enables it. If not, sudo phpenmod redis will do. It’s implicitly does something similar to https://github.com/laravel/framework/issues/29955#issuecomment-549785611

Tread carefully as to not mix stuff here on your server!

‘redis’ => [ ‘cluster’ => false, ‘client’ => env(‘REDIS_CLIENT’, ‘predis’), ‘default’ => [ ‘host’ => env(‘REDIS_HOST’, ‘127.0.0.1’), ‘port’ => env(‘REDIS_PORT’, 6379), ‘database’ => env(‘REDIS_DATABASE’, 0), ‘password’ => env(‘REDIS_PASSWORD’, ‘’), ],

],

In which file?

It’s in: /config/database.php

You can simply add REDIS_CLIENT=predis to your .env file

Sorry for the noise, it seems the php-redis extension wasn’t (correctly) enabled.

We’ll update the solution for this in ignition 👍
