Error: RedisException: No such file or directory at <<closure>>

šŸš§ Installation

Hello,

Iā€™ve done a fresh install and after some trouble, Nextcloud is up and running. As it was initially very slow to load pages, I set up ACPu for memory caching, and then Redis and file locking according to the admin instructions.

However, under Admin > Logging, I get three times the error, per second (!):

[no app in context] Error: RedisException: No such file or directory at <<closure>>

This is included in /var/www/nextcloud/config/config.php:

  'memcache.local' => '\\OC\\Memcache\\APCu',
  'memcache.locking' => '\\OC\\Memcache\\Redis',
  'filelocking.enabled' => 'true',
  'redis' =>
  array (
    'host' => '/var/run/redis/redis.sock',
    'port' => 0,
    'dbindex' => 0,
    'password' => 'secret',
    'timeout' => 1.5,
  ),

The following two blocks already exist in /etc/redis/redis.conf, so that seems fine, too?

port 0
[...]
unixsocket /var/run/redis/redis-server.sock
unixsocketperm 770

redis-server.service is active and running fine, it seems.

sudo -u www-data redis-cli -s /var/run/redis/redis.sock ping (following this tip) returns PONG, so www-data has access.

Searching for RedisException didnā€™t return anything I could interpret as a hint. Anyone could point me in the right direction?

(@MichaIng I see youā€™ve worked on Redis here on the forum before - would you be willing to have a look?)

You socket names do not match. Even that the symlink seems to be in place, please try to use the actual ā€œmodernā€ socket location in Redis and Nextcloud: /run/redis/redis-server.sock

If that doesnā€™t solve it, I remember even with 770 mode and www-data in redis group for some unexplained reason during early Debian Bullseye times PHP/Nextcloud was not able to connect. Meanwhile it does in my case but temporarily I needed to set: unixsocketperm 777

Thank you so much! Updating socket names (using the ā€˜modernā€™ location) did the trick :smiley:

Great.

If anyone is interested about the story behind the ā€œmodernā€ location /run vs /var/run:

Many, especially older packages still tend to use /var/run but distros and FHS advise to use /run for such kind of files and hence the /var/run -> /run symlinks or bind mounts usually exist.

How did you update the socket names?

It seems that I have a similar issue:

unfortunately, after a blackout my #ncp doesnā€™t start. The ncp-report says: Nextcloud check error.

An unhandled exception has been thrown: RedisException: No such file or directory in /var/www/nextcloud/lib/private/RedisFactory.php:92

ā€¦ Redis->connect (ā€˜/var/run/redis/ā€¦ā€™, 0, 0) ā€¦

should I provide the full ncp-report? or even open a new task?
