Have you actually installed redis (the server)? You installed the php predis package to interface with it, but didn't mention whether you actually installed redis.

How to start redis on mac? [Solved]
I am trying to get redis working in my Laravel project on Mac.
Here is what I did so far:
-
I ran "composer require predis/predis" succesfully
-
I can see the predis folder in vendor folder
-
My CACHE_DRIVER has been set to redis in the cache.php and .env file
When I try to run redis in my project, I get the following error:
Connection refused [tcp://127.0.0.1:6379]
Based on what I read online, it seems like my redis server is not started. How can I start it?
