# Redis Issue

 * There seems to be a bug when setting the Redis host in the plugin. Using a cPanel
   server with Litespeed, the path should be /home/…/.cagefs/tmp/redis.sock, after
   saving, the connection is validated, but LiteSpeed Cache removes /home/… from
   the settings value leaving only /.cagefs/tmp/redis.sock
 * This appears to break the Redis integration if you save any additional cache 
   setting afterwards.

 * What do you mean by “**This appears to break the Redis integration if you save
   any additional cache setting afterwards**“? You mean first Redis connection shows
   as “Pass,” but later, if you save any other settings, it shows as “Failed”?

 * This is not the bug, and this is correct behaviour. You can check [https://docs.litespeedtech.com/lsws/cp/plesk/configuration/#how-it-works](https://docs.litespeedtech.com/lsws/cp/plesk/configuration/#how-it-works)

 * [@simplisticsca](https://wordpress.org/support/users/simplisticsca/) I double
   checked the save code and there is no other place where the setting is being 
   changed.
   Please give me some details to make sure I understood correctly:– you
   edit the settings in WP -> LSC -> Cache -> Object cache, yes?– The 3 dots(…) 
   in path is used to hide the whole path, yea?

 * I was able to recreate this issue consistently this past Friday across multiple
   different sites on the same server stack. During those tests, the `/home/{user}/`
   portion of the socket path was being stripped immediately upon saving. This would
   validate initially, but then break the Redis integration on any subsequent save
   because the path was no longer absolute.
 * Interestingly, as of today, the host setting is remaining intact after saving
   on those same sites without any changes to the plugin version. To clarify my 
   previous report, the ‘…’ was a placeholder for the Linux username. The actual
   input was the standard absolute path: `/home/{user}/.cagefs/tmp/redis.sock`.

 * [@simplisticsca](https://wordpress.org/support/users/simplisticsca/) please send
   a report to Litespeed and share the ID generated. [https://docs.litespeedtech.com/lscache/lscwp/troubleshoot/#get-a-report-number](https://docs.litespeedtech.com/lscache/lscwp/troubleshoot/#get-a-report-number)
   
   Choose one site that have the consistent behaviour.Maybe there are some security
   plugins that run? or some code that changes WP options on save.
