Error connecting to redis using the DO guide

Installation

Hi,

I followed https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-use-the-discourse-one-click-application-on-digitalocean, but I never got the email at the end. I checked the logs and it says "Error connecting to redis on localhost :6379. Any idea? I can’t figure it out.

Thanks.

Don’t follow that guide. Follow this one.

I’ve noticed that DO howtos are becoming more popular in search rankings. Does someone have contact with DO want to tap them to update?

I believe @techapj has followed up a few times.

The DO one-click install should still work, I’m sure @techapj tested it recently. It is a bit old, but that can be fixed with a standard command line update 3-liner.

I did try to get ahold of DO staff here on meta but no luck.

I just sent an email to Ryan Quinn regarding this and will follow up.
