I realize its been a quick minute since Ive revisited this post... but shortly after my initial post, I realized that Redis-Server isnt ever installed within/onto the CL OS environment. So, after realizing that (because it doesnt really state in the doc), Ive installed Redis-Server... BUT, Im still not sure how to properly deamonize the sock for use by users within Cage/LVE.

Code:

# create a unix domain socket to listen on

unixsocket /var/run/redis/redis.sock

# set permissions for the socket

unixsocketperm 775

#requirepass passwordtouse

bind 127.0.0.1

daemonize yes

stop-writes-on-bgsave-error no

rdbcompression yes

# maximum memory allowed for redis

maxmemory 50M

# how redis will evice old objects - least recently used

maxmemory-policy allkeys-lru

Ive tried several different methods... and have not been able to figure out where/how to properly set that access.

Itd be brilliant if the CL team could put together a doc in the knowledgebase for this install ?

###

I found a great article for setting it up in a typical cPanel environment... but no Alt-PHP coverage included.

Hello Shannon,
Thank you for reaching out! If you need the socket in the cell, you need to add:
/var/run/redis/ in /etc/cagefs/cagefs.mp
After that execute:
cagefsctl -M
Let me know if you have any questions. Thank you for contacting us.

for some reason, i still cannot correctly connect to the socket. its identified by the user account, and found, but isnt properly connecting.

i have also added this w/ a --force-update:

Code:

echo -e "[redis unix socket]
comment=Redis Server
paths=/var/run/redis" > /etc/cagefs/conf.d/redis-cache.cfg

what could i be missing?

...and sadly, I only now noticed this update:
Warning!

Starting from mod_hostinglimits version 1.0-30 Redis is not supported.

Hello,
Yes, there is no more support for using Redis with mod_hostinglimits of most recent versions: https://[https://docs.cloudlinux.com...-hostinglimits

> for some reason, I still cannot correctly connect to the socket
Can you give more details as to how you are trying to connect?

I just used https://cloudlinux.zendesk.com/hc/en...s/360013936659 guide on my test machine:

Code:

[root@192-168-245-77 ~]# cagefsctl --list-enabled|grep cltest3

cltest3

[root@192-168-245-77 ~]# su - cltest3 -s /bin/bash

[cltest3@192-168-245-77 ~]$ redis-cli ping

PONG

Additionally, there is a way to enable redis for PHP Selector alt-php alternatives:

Code:

[root@192-168-245-77 ~]# selectorctl -u cltest3 -e redis -v 7.1

[root@192-168-245-77 ~]# su - cltest3 -s /bin/bash

Last login: Tue Jun  2 18:13:09 UTC 2020 on pts/0

[cltest3@192-168-245-77 ~]$ php -m|grep redis

redis
