Private Networking Seems to be Broken in my Project

Project ID 646e0c5a-07fd-4ade-aaed-c92750d977ae I can't seem to use private networking at all in this project. Redis is not reachable on REDIS_PRIVATE_URL and neither is my database on DATABASE_PRIVATE_URL. Only in this project. I do not seem to have issues in other projects.

you need to set family to 0 heres some example code that works

import Redis from "ioredis";

const redisURL = new URL(process.env.REDIS_PRIVATE_URL);

const redis = new Redis({
    family: 0,
    host: redisURL.hostname,
    port: redisURL.port,
    username: redisURL.username,
    password: redisURL.password
});

console.log(await redis.ping());

import Redis from "ioredis";

const redisURL = new URL(process.env.REDIS_PRIVATE_URL);

const redis = new Redis({
    family: 0,
    host: redisURL.hostname,
    port: redisURL.port,
    username: redisURL.username,
    password: redisURL.password
});

console.log(await redis.ping());

interesting thx lemme try! works like a charm!! thx much!!!

no problem!

I had exactly the same issue and adding that parameter fixed it. Do you mind sharing what does the family option means?

Brody•10mo ago

by default for some unknown reason family is set to 4 meaning only use IPv4 networking, but the private network is IPv6 only, so it must be set to 0 to allow both IPv4 and IPv6 networking
