v7.2.0-RC5 Redis-Search enabled breaks the app (SEVERE message)

[Frédéric Dussurget]

Hi,

I have these dependancies :
    implementation "org.apereo.cas:cas-server-support-redis-ticket-registry"
    implementation "org.apereo.cas:cas-server-support-redis-service-registry"
    implementation "org.apereo.cas:cas-server-support-gauth-redis"
    implementation "org.apereo.cas:cas-server-support-webauthn-redis"
    implementation "org.apereo.cas:cas-server-support-trusted-mfa-redis"
    implementation "org.apereo.cas:cas-server-support-redis-authentication"
    implementation "org.apereo.cas:cas-server-support-redis-core"

I had to add this one because I like gaming : (see the topic here : https://groups.google.com/a/apereo.org/g/cas-user/c/TNyoMFn-V68/m/5B9ZDSWSBwAJ)
    implementation "org.apereo.cas:cas-server-support-redis-modules"

I installed redis-redisearch package and loaded module redisearch in redis 6.0.16 (compatible with module loading) :
loadmodule /usr/lib/redis/modules/redisearch.so

I checked that FT. command work on my 3 redis-server and Sentinel nodes :
127.0.0.1:6379> keys *
1) "RegisteredService:3"
2) "RegisteredService:48"
3) "RegisteredService:2000"
127.0.0.1:6379> FT.CREATE myIdx SCHEMA title text boddy text
OK
127.0.0.1:6379> FT.ADD myIdx doc1 1.0 fields title "hello world" body "lorem ipsum"
OK
127.0.0.1:6379> FT.SEARCH myIdx "hell*"
1) (integer) 1
2) "doc1"
3) 1) "title"
   2) "hello world"
   3) "body"
   4) "lorem ipsum"



If set cas.ticket.registry.redis.enable-redis-search=true,I've got this error :

reverting it to false makes the app run

Thank you Frédéric! 

Setting cas.ticket.registry.redis.enable-redis-search=false "fixes" things, since I am using a Redis compatible replacement the search function isn't included.

I may end up switching to hazelcast or something else though, if I can't find another good active-active redis compatible solution.

Thank you,

Matt

Hi,

I am curious : Were you using the Valkey fork ? Have you eventually switched to something else ?

Well, I gave another try today because I saw changes here : https://github.com/apereo/cas/pull/6612

But, at this time,  the activation of the redis-search function is still breaking the app (v7.2.0-RC6) on a brand "genuine" redis sentinel infra.

Have a good day,

Fred
