What is

Redis AUTH authentication failed

 ?

When you encounter the "AUTH authentication failed" error from Redis, follow these immediate actions:

  1. Verify the Redis password: Ensure you have the correct password. If you're unsure, check the Redis configuration file, typically named redis.conf, for the requirepass directive to find the correct password.
  2. Test Authentication:
    • Open a terminal.
    • Connect to Redis using the command: redis-cli.
    • Attempt to authenticate with the command: AUTH yourpassword (replace yourpassword with the actual password).
  3. Check Redis Logs: Look into the Redis logs for any authentication-related errors or messages. The log file's location is specified in the redis.conf file under the logfile directive.
  4. Validate Redis Configuration: Ensure that the redis.conf file does not have any issues or misconfigurations, especially related to security settings like requirepass.
  5. Verify Network Access & Firewall Settings: Ensure your network and firewall settings are not blocking Redis connections.
  6. Ensure the Redis server is running and accessible from your client application's host by using the command: ping (within the Redis CLI).

Execute these steps promptly to identify and resolve the authentication issue with Redis.
