Error installing Wave
Hello Bobby
The redis extension gives error when installing in WAMP environment. I had to run composer update --ignore-platform-req=ext-redis.
Also: composer require riari/laravel-forum:~5.0 --ignore-platform-req=ext-redis
I'm using Wampserver 3.2.6 - 64bit, Apache 2.4.51, PHP 8.1, MySQL 5.7.36, MariaDB 10.6.5.
Hey there,
Ah I see, that is because you don't have the PHP redis module installed.
What you could do is:
- Download the
php_redis.dllfrom here:
https://pecl.php.net/package/redis/2.2.7/windows
-
Copy the
php_redis.dllfile and add it to your WAMP Server extension directory. -
Then in your
php.inifile and addextension=php_redis.dllline. -
Finally restart the WAMP server.
Alternatively, you could remove the "ext-redis": "*", line from the composer.json file and run composer update.
I'll look into a fix for this so that redis is not always required. Thank you for reporting the problem!

I guess that on the web hosting will not have a problem. The extension is there. It's just on my local computer.
Thank you for the answer.
