Redisearch: Unknown Command FT.CREATE

[Tharmalingam Viswanathan]

from redisearch.client import Client, Query

from redisearch import TextField

# create an index

client = Client('idx', "xx.xx.xx.xxx")

try:

   client.drop_index()

except:

   pass

client.create_index( [TextField('test', weight=1.0), TextField('body')] )

Here is the error I am getting:

    627             raise
    628         if isinstance(response, ResponseError):
--> 629             raise response
    630         return response
    631 

ResponseError: unknown command 'FT.CREATE'

Enter code here...

I cannot seem to understand why I get this error. Not sure what that I am missing

Here is my environment:
