Nestjs <> Redis Unable to connect to redis using private network url

Unable to connect my nestjs server to redis using the private network url - added 5s sleep before start and build commands - both run in v2 runtime - nestjs server runs on ipv6 using ::

Solution:

the version of redis that cache-manager-redis-store v2.0.0 uses is from 2021, likely didnt have support for ipv6 back then, so please upgrade cache-manager-redis-store to the latest version

sleep is not needed with the v2 runtime, you can remove that are you getting the error from build or runtime logs?

0xArc ⚡•3mo ago

runtime

Brody•3mo ago

i assume cache-manager-redis-store uses ioredis under the hood, if so, please read - https://docs.railway.app/guides/private-networking#known-configuration-requirements-for-ipv6

0xArc ⚡•3mo ago

just to be sure, i just concat the private url with familiy=0?

Brody•3mo ago

append ?family=0 yes

0xArc ⚡•3mo ago

will try and update here

Error: getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND redis-awln.railway.internal
    at GetAddrInfoReqWrap.onlookup [as oncomplete] (node:dns:107:26)
 ELIFECYCLE  Command failed with exit code 1.

redis://[username]:[password]@redis-awln.railway.internal:6379?family=0

Brody•3mo ago

redis does not have a private domain of redis-awln.railway.internal in the linked project

Brody•3mo ago

please only ever use reference variables - https://docs.railway.app/guides/variables#referencing-another-services-variable that way you can avoid these kinds of mistakes

0xArc ⚡•3mo ago

oh i see, so this url is invalid?

0xArc ⚡•3mo ago

had referenced it from here

Brody•3mo ago

are we looking at different projects? this is a screenshot from your linked project

0xArc ⚡•3mo ago

Yeah copied id from browser under pr-47

Brody•3mo ago

okay i wasnt told this was pr-47

0xArc ⚡•3mo ago

sorry, my bad thought the project id linked to pr

Brody•3mo ago

fair assumption try settings family: 0, in the same config that you set the username

0xArc ⚡•3mo ago

just pushed, building now

Brody•3mo ago

lets see the updated code?

        username: configService.get('REDIS_USERNAME'),
        ttl: 5,
      }),
    }),

Brody•3mo ago

is this using ioredis under the hood?

0xArc ⚡•3mo ago

no its not "redisStore" is from this

Brody•3mo ago

i saw your other messages, it said ioredis

0xArc ⚡•3mo ago

unused library replaced by this

"cache-manager": "^4",
"cache-manager-redis-store": "2.0.0",

"cache-manager": "^4",
"cache-manager-redis-store": "2.0.0",

only these are relevant libraries for using redis the cache manager redis store package is outdated, but i remember vaguely that we have it that since certain feature with nestjs was not working but let me try updating it to experiment

Solution
