Connection to Redis isn't available yet, reconnect is in progress: please try again later

Hi,

I am having an issue after updating Hangfire.Pro.Redis to the latest version (2.7.4.0). i keep getting “Connection to Redis isn’t available yet, reconnect is in progress: please try again later.” and my Hangfire server will not start. The log gave :

Kindly assist urgently.

Hi @tobbyioa, thanks for sharing. What version did you use before? Did you try to downgrade it to previous versions?

Hi @odinserj,

Thanks for your reply. I was formerly using a fairly old version (2.5.3.0). I decided to upgrade it when I begin to notice a high heartbeat interval on the server. This was resulting to aborted jobs.
I have downgraded to version 2.7.1.0 which I have used in a separate project with no issues at all.
I also upgraded the Hangfire.Core to 1.7.11.0, I previously had version 1.7.6.0.
Hangfire now connects fine with Redis. However, while AddorUpdate my recurring jobs (41 of them) was ongoing, the server encountered the exception below:

2020-07-26 15:57:38,899 [ServerJobCancellationWatcher #1] DEBUG Hangfire.Processing.BackgroundExecution Execution loop ServerJobCancellationWatcher:9e51d4ce caught an exception and will be retried in 00:00:01

   at Hangfire.Server.BackgroundProcessDispatcherBuilder.ExecuteProcess(Guid executionId, Object state)
   at Hangfire.Processing.BackgroundExecution.Run(Action`2 callback, Object state)

Then the server stopped provisioning the recurring job.
Kindly assist to look into this.
