Queues not working because of local.ERROR: Class "Redis" not found

My queues don't work because of this error shown in my logs:

[2025-07-24 06:46:59] local.ERROR: Class "Redis" not found {"exception":"[object] (Error(code: 0): Class "Redis" not found at C:\Users\username\project\vendor\laravel\framework\src\Illuminate\Redis\Connectors\PhpRedisConnector.php:79)

The methods I tried to resolve it (based on the answers from my Google search and other discussions:

  • Make sure that Redis is running = I got a pong back so I guess it is running
  • Change REDIS_CLIENT to redis in the database.php file then used composer require predis/predis
  • My REDIS_CLIENT in the env file is also set to predis

@Glukinho hello, sorry for the late reponse. I have installed the dll '8.4 Thread Safe (TS) x64' added it to the ext of my php folder and added extension=php_redis.dll in the php.ini file
