At the same time, redis is installed and started by the redis-server command.

  • why did you not set the configuration file for radishes? - deivan_
  • It is by default. The following apt-get -f install helped and after the command sudo apt-get install redis-server - IOleg
  • Is it not possible to leave the default settings? how critical is it? - IOleg
  • not that it is very critical, but personally I prefer to be confident in all configs, rather than rely on default - deivan_

Perhaps, you have Redis running without TCP, port 0 is specified in the configs. In order to work with TCP, a port must be specified, usually 6379. But it’s better to work through a unix socket — this is faster.
