Invision Community 5: A video walkthrough creating a custom theme and homepage By Matt Thursday at 04:02 PM
Rob Fielding Posted October 27, 2021 Posted October 27, 2021 Hi, I have had a problem enabling the Redis cache. I have a message in the Dashboard saying "Caching is not working correctly. Review your caching method configuration and adjust the settings as needed." I have therefore tried to switch the cache off first before looking into it. However, when I change the settings to no cache, then download and upload the constants.php file when I return to Dashboard it says the cache is still enabled and there is still a problem. Can you help please? Thanks, Rob
Marc Posted October 27, 2021 Posted October 27, 2021 Please update all access details on file. We can then take a look at this for you to see whats happening

I presume you mean my login info - can you point me where I need to update and I will do ASAP. Thanks!
Marc Posted October 27, 2021 Posted October 27, 2021 Of course, if you go to your client area here, then click your license, click manage this purchase, you will see a "stored access information" section https://www.invisioncommunity.com/clientarea/

We would need the FTP details adding there also, given the nature of the issue, as we will need to work with your constants file
Rob Fielding Posted October 27, 2021 Author Posted October 27, 2021 Ah OK. I will add those and confirm when done.
Rob Fielding Posted October 27, 2021 Author Posted October 27, 2021 @Marc Stridgen FTP details now added - thanks I also have the Redis details my server provider gave me if you need those at any time.
Marc Posted October 27, 2021 Posted October 27, 2021 Where is it you are seeing the message there, Rob? Im not actually seeing any messages showing issues with data storage
Solution Rob Fielding Posted October 27, 2021 Author Solution Posted October 27, 2021 Hi @Marc Stridgen we may be getting crossed messages as there is a parallel request with my server tech support. They now say they have enabled Redis - "I have enabled the cache extensions on the server end." so perhaps that was causing the error messages and now it is working the errors have gone. I have now enabled Redis and uploaded the latest constants.php and all seems fine. If the error msg comes back I shall let you know. Sorry, if this was a false alarm caused by my server tech support not enabling the Redis component! Marc 1
Marc Posted October 27, 2021 Posted October 27, 2021 No problem, Rob. Let us know if you see any further issues of course. Glad to see you're sorted
Rob Fielding Posted October 27, 2021 Author Posted October 27, 2021 Hi @Marc Stridgen apologies. I've been looking at other site issues and when I checked back in the forum admin area I am getting the "Cache Not Working" error message again. All the login details should work if you are able to take a look and correct/advise. Thanks again!

Thanks again! could you please provide the security answers in the notes section of the access details area or disable 2FA?
Rob Fielding Posted October 27, 2021 Author Posted October 27, 2021 Hi @Jim M apologies. I've added the answers in Notes - hope it works for you now. Thanks, Rob
Jim M Posted October 27, 2021 Posted October 27, 2021 Thanks for updating that information. Unfortunately, the software is unable to connect to Redis by the configuration details provided. I would advise reviewing each and every piece with your server administrator or hosting provider. Additionally, there are a ton of errors being generated from Tapatalk in your System Log. You will want to bring this to their attention for assistance or disable the application till it is resolved.
Rob Fielding Posted October 27, 2021 Author Posted October 27, 2021 Hi @Jim M thanks so much, I will do. 🙂
Marc Posted October 28, 2021 Posted October 28, 2021 I would advise removing redis from the equation if its switching off all the time. Its more likely slowing your site than speeding it up if its not working properly, and in most use cases redis is actually not needed.
