You have an older version of Redis installed on your operating system.
Please start redis-server by pointing to the exact path of the binary. When
your working directory is the root of the archive you downloaded, you can
start it by executing "src/redis-server".

You have something running on that port, whether it is Redis itself or
something else. That needs to be killed/quitted first. Otherwise, you can
run Redis on a different, unused, port.

How would I find out what's running on the port and quit it? And how can I
run it on a different port?

Use "lsof -i :6379 | grep -i listen" to find out which process is listening
on the default Redis port. Change the config file to make Redis listen on
another port.

That command shows that nothing is running on port 6379. I can't seem to
get it to work. What's the best way to uninstall and install again?

You're passing a config file when starting Redis. Please double check that
nothing is running on the port that is specified in that config file (6379
is the default, but when Redis quits saying that the port is already in
use, and 6379 is not bound, you probably have a non-default port number
specified in you config file?).

I've verified that nothing is running on port 6379. I've checked the
default port and it's 6379. I need to run redis on this port to make it
work with juggernaut. I've tried deleting the folder and reinstalling, and
I get the same result. Has this happened to anyone else? What do you
recommend? Thanks..

I have the same problem on ubuntu 10.10
Greg Andrews
I have the same problem on ubuntu 10.10
Are you using the Ubuntu package? None of the Redis versions packaged by Ubuntu are recent enough to support the "slave-serve-stale-data" config file option.

Hi, I just included the port number in the error message when Redis can't
bind the listening socket so that troubleshooting will be simpler the next
time. However this is not a Redis bug but a setup issue.

not sure I understand your issue but you can try writing to the Redis
Google Group.
If the problem is that you can't change port, likely you specify a port
number in redis.conf but then don't run redis-server with "redis-server
/path/to/config/file".

I have the same problem after I install a new version redis. After I reboot
my computer, all the problem is gone. I guess this problem is because there
is an old version redis running on your computer.

Is this issue solved? I found nothing run at port 6379 but redis says the
address already in use. Sometimes reboot may helps.

This bug tracker is no longer in use, it has been migrated to
github.com/antirez/redis .
Your problem is not a bug with Redis, but is caused by your usage of Redis.
You should email the Redis mailing list
(https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/redis-db) with your problem, what
you have done to diagnose your problem, and what you would like to happen.

A few things:
1) Bug tracking was moved to Github, as I last stated August 4, 2014
2) This isn't a bug with Redis, this is a problem with your configuration
file, which is why it has a status of "invalid"
3) The error reported by Redis tells you exactly what is wrong: "bad
directive or wrong number of arguments" - line 709 *should*
read 'unixsocket /tmp/redis.sock' without the quotes, assuming that is the
socket path you want
