Answer 2

You have to install redis server first;

You can install redis server on mac by following step -

  $ curl -O http://download.redis.io/redis-stable.tar.gz
  $ tar xzvf redis-stable.tar.gz
  $ cd redis-stable
  $ make
  $ make test
  $ sudo make install
  $ redis-server

Good luck.

Answer 3

Try upgrading your node to latest version.

sudo npm cache clean -f
sudo npm install -g n
sudo n stable

version 0.4 may not work properly.

Answer 4

I also have the same problem, first I tried to restart redis-server by sudo service restart but the problem still remained. Then I removed redis-server by sudo apt-get purge redis-server and install it again by sudo apt-get install redis-server and then the redis was working again. It also worth to have a look at redis log which located in here /var/log/redis/redis-server.log

Answer 5

I solve this problem in next way:

sudo apt-get install redis-server

then run command to confirm that everything ok:

sudo service redis-server status

And the output will be: redis-server is running - that means that the problem is solved.
