Redis Client Error Error: getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND redis.railway.internal
Hello, I have a next.js project deploying in a railway service with a redis service attached. I set the REDIS_URL variable on the next project to ${{Redis.REDIS_PRIVATE_URL}}, and I can see from my logs that the app tries to connect to the internal url: "REDIS_URL: redis://default:[email protected]:6379". However, when my redis client (using redis package) tries to connect to that url, I get this error:
#13 29.05 app:build: Redis Client Error Error: getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND redis.railway.internal #13 29.05 app:build: at GetAddrInfoReqWrap.onlookupall [as oncomplete] (node:dns:120:26) { #13 29.05 app:build: errno: -3008, #13 29.05 app:build: code: 'ENOTFOUND', #13 29.05 app:build: syscall: 'getaddrinfo', #13 29.05 app:build: hostname: 'redis.railway.internal' #13 29.05 app:build: }If I switch to use the ${{Redis.REDIS_URL}} that uses the proxy, the connection works. URL to the build logs: https://railway.app/project/bffee644-ec55-4122-9e19-fee98c401647/service/05cba2ee-b344-4910-b0de-626add3247f7?id=ea6d0f24-f702-49ee-9b81-f69b204fa30e#build

Railway is an infrastructure platform where you can provision infrastructure, develop with that infrastructure locally, and then deploy to the cloud.

you can not use the private network during build, do whatever needs to use redis during runtime

how would I initialize the redis connection at runtime then?
do not use it during build, or use the public network during build and the private network during runtime
ok, I will try that, thank you!
that worked, thanks Brody!
awesome!
