undefined method `connect' for Redis:Class

[DependencyHell]

Hi,

I just installed it with gem, but I've got this after starting with gem redmon

Thin web server (v1.7.2 codename Bachmanity)

What am I missing?

Redis server v=3.0.6 sha=00000000:0 malloc=jemalloc-3.6.0 bits=64 build=687a2a319020fa42

Thanks

I think this is a version dependency issue. We started seeing this error when we upgraded the redis gem from 3.3.5 to 4.0.1. Rolling redis back to 3.3.5 fixed the issue for us.

Version: Install redmon using the gem in ruby-2.4.1 redis: 2.8.22

Please help me check the problem, thank you.

Already solved, Redis 4.0.1 downgraded to 3.3.5

This error happens with redis gem versions from 4.0 onward. This is caused by the removal of the Redis#connect method, which was deprecated long ago. The fix is to use Redis#new instead, which is a straightforward replacement (#connect was just a wrapper around #new).

The commit in redis that removed #connect was https://github.com/redis/redis-rb/commit/895cc3211e335a8fd9ba9322cd311c09eea9621f#diff-54fab56a3b12825ac3ed9243b67fd459

That commit is over two years old. It's not acceptable being stuck with such an old redis.rb version.

I've added a PR that fixes this. https://github.com/steelThread/redmon/pull/101

Are we still locked to an old version of Redis?
