Redis not found when running composer install
Redis not found
I need help with my php and redis installation. For some reason it keeps telling Redis can't be found when running composer install
It tells me the extension cannot be found.
Any suggestions? I am running the latest version of php with non thread safe. I believe redis is NTS as well. I need to check actually now that I think about it. That could be the issue.
Composer
When I run the composer install (with --ignore-redis-ext), it works and it installs what it needs to for laravel wave.
As you can see I am now getting another error after having added the required files to the php /ext folder
Hi there!
As discussed on our Discord server, what you can do is to just remove the Redis definition here:
https://github.com/thedevdojo/wave/blob/main/composer.json#L14
Then run composer update
and composer install
and you will not get the Redis error any more.
Redis is mainly needed when deploying to the DigitalOcean App Platform where you might have multiple container instances of Wave running simultaneously so you need a way to share your sessions.
If you don't need Redis, you can just remove the line from the composer.json file.
Let me know how it goes!
I thought redis was necessary or I would have removed it.
Thank you so much Bobby. I have a quick question though. There was just a button that said 'AI ANSWER' or something like that but when I clicked it, it said I couldn't take that action and disappeared?
Hey there!
Ah yes, the AI answer is a new beta feature that we are working on! Still not completely available yet.
