Cant connect to redis AWS

Did you configure your connection settings in you wp-config.php?

Hi Renzo,

I got by doing the following steps:

In ElastiCache:

1) Access the ElastiCache on your dashboard in AWS;
2) Launch Cache Cluster;
3) Select Engine Redis;
4) Specify Cluster Details;
5) Set Advanced Settings. *Important1: Select the VPC Security Group(s) of your WP instance;
6) Launch Cache Cluster;

While ElastiCache will create your Cache Cluster, do the following:

?*Important1: You must have added the same “security group” of this instance WP in your Cache Cluster Redis;

Now let’s add port 6379 in your security group in EC2:

1) Access EC2 on your dashboard in AWS;
2) Select the instance of your WP;
3) In the tab “Description” click the Security Group of its Instance WP;
4) Select the tab “Inbound” and edit adding: Custom TCP Rule >> TCP >> 6379 and save;

Finally, copy and paste the code below into your wp-config and was replacing somename.xxxxx.0001.region.cache.amazonaws.com

for the endpoint generated in your ElastiCache;

define ( 'WP_REDIS_HOST', 'somename.xxxxx.0001.region.cache.amazonaws.com');
