I\'m using Redis 2.8 on Windows which I downloaded from github release. After unzip and I\'ve set maxheap in redis.windows.conf
file. After running redis-serv
I just got the same error message, but the root cause was different: I copied the config file over from a different machine, but it contained a "bind" entry containing an IP address, which - for sure - was invalid for the new machine, i.e. bind 234.234.234.234
I changed it to the correct address and it was working as expected.
