<p><b>New page</b></p><div>The <code>redis</code> server is used by Nextcloud to lock files much faster than using the database.<br />
<br />
== Installation ==<br />
<br />
* Open YaST<br />
* Open Software Management<br />
* Search for <code>redis</code><br />
* Select package <code>redis</code> for installation<br />
NOTE: You may see 2 packages - <code>redis</code> and <code>redis7</code>. <code>redis7</code> is an out of date version of redis - install the <code>redis</code> package.<br />
* Ensure the <code>php8-redis</code> package is also installed.<br />
* Accept the installation and allow the package to install.<br />
<br />
== Configuration ==<br />
<br />
* Open <code>/etc/redis/default.conf.example</code> file with <code>nano</code><br />
* We will be using Unix sockets so amend the following:<br />
**<code>port 6379</code> -> <code>port 0</code><br />
**<code># unixsocket /run/redis.sock</code> -> <code>unixsocket /var/run/redis/redis.sock</code><br />
**<code># unixsocketperm 700</code> -> <code>unixsocketperm 770</code><br />
NOTE: Be sure to # uncomment the last two lines.<br />
* Save the file as <code>redis.conf</code><br />
<br />
== Starting and testing the server ==<br />
<br />
* Run <code>sudo service redis@redis start</code><br />
* Run <code>redis-cli -s /var/run/redis/redis.sock</code><br />
* Check by typing <code>ping</code>. You should receive the response <code>PONG</code><br />
* Exit by typing <code>exit</code><br />
<br />
NOTE: The service name changes depending on the <code>.conf</code> file name - e.g. if you save d the configuration as <code>default.conf</code>, you would run <code>service redis@default start</code>.<br />
<br />
== Allow web server access ==<br />
<br />
* Start YaST<br />
* Go to 'Security and Users'<br />
* Open 'User and Group Management'<br />
* Go to the 'Groups' tab<br />
* Select 'Set Filter' then select 'System Groups'<br />
* From the list, find the <code>redis</code> group<br />
* Select 'Edit'<br />
* In the 'Group Members' box, find <code>wwwrun</code> and select it.<br />
* Once done, accept and close YaST.</div>Sam
