Rancher Desktop and Hangfire.Pro.Redis

bug?
1

We’re a paying customer.

We are switching from Docker Desktop to Rancher Desktop due to ongoing issues with M1 compatibility. I am currently porting our developer machine container setup to RD, and I am having problems with the combination of RD and Hangfire.Pro.Redis.

My experiments to get this working include --bind 0.0.0.0, as well as --protected-mode off for the Redis container (even though these are the defaults). Using redis-cli, I am able to interact with the database in a variety of ways; however, Hangfire.Pro.Rails fails with either ConnectTimeout or ConnectionRefused. I have tried Redis 5 and 6.

Enabling --loglevel debug on the Redis container shows that Redis is definitely accepting connections from Hangfire.Pro.Redis.

Here is an example stack trace:

Hangfire.Pro.Redis.RedisStorageException

This might be caused by the endpoint name. Try using ‘127.0.0.1’ as an endpoint explicitly instead of ‘localhost’ (default one).

Thanks, that worked.
