Hi @broken.pipe,

I had the same problem as you and I’m not sure what caused the sudden auth problem with the redis server. I found a workaround (assuming you are using docker-compose):

  1. Append “command: redis-server --requirepass YOURPASSWORD” under your redis docker-compose configuration

  2. Go to your config.php in your Nextcloud and under redis change ‘password’ => ‘false’ to ‘password’ => ‘YOURPASSWORD’.

  3. Recreate the containers

From now on nextcloud will use a password to auth against the redis server. In my case the auth error disappeared and I could log in again.

Hope this helps!
