    I am not able to connect to my remote Redis host via WordPress dashboard. Diagnostics are at the bottom which shows my config values.

    Do I need to install redis on my WordPress server even though I am connecting to a remote Redis server?

    I am able to connect to my remote Redis host via redis-cli on my WordPress server via SSH.

    Here is the diagnostics:

    PHP errors below. Says name cannot resolve which is interesting to me since I can connect via this command:

    redis-cli -h blog.redis.cache.windows.net -p 6380 -a password

    That usually means your PHP-FPM process can’t connect to the server, but your computer can. Firewall?

    I haven’t tried to connect to Redis from my computer.

    I was connecting to my redis server from the WordPress server via redis-cli.

    My diagnostics output isn’t showing anything more but here is the full output again.
    I tried updating PhpRedis but it does not appear to be showing any updated version. Not sure if that would help anyway.

    There is a firewall but it isn’t blocking anything right now and I can connect via SSH from the WP Server.

    Oh. You’re trying to connect via TLS which was added in PhpRedis 5.1 I believe. You need to update PhpRedis 👍🏻

    Thread Starter jordanmc

    (@jordanmc)

    For now, I am just got to use the local server. I tried to update PhpRedis but it didn’t work and I am not familiar with Linux itself as I had used a Docker container that contained WP, etc.

    Plugin Author Till Krüss

    (@tillkruess)

    You can try using Predis instead, it supports TLS.

    Thread Starter jordanmc

    Wouldn’t using the local WP server actually be faster? Or is it better to use a remote server? I have a Redis server in Azure I can use.

    Thanks

    Plugin Author Till Krüss

    (@tillkruess)

    Yes, local instances can be faster if your machine has enough memory, but your web server and Redis are sharing the CPU which will be the bottleneck with enough traffic.
