I am attempting to install Redis using Homebrew for an app project. Homebrew IS installed and has been updated to its latest version. However, when I run $ brew install redis
from the terminal, I am always met with the same error message, reposted below.
➜ ~ git:(master) ✗ brew install redis

The error message says gives a warning saying only that support is not offered for my Mac OS X version (10.12), not explicitly that it cannot be installed. However, attempting to run brew services start redis
returns the following message:
➜ nodj git:(JobsPage) ✗ brew services start redis
Service `redis` already started, use `brew services restart redis` to restart.
The above leads me to believe it IS installed. And, yet, running brew info redis
returns
➜ nodj git:(JobsPage) ✗ brew info redis
redis: stable 3.2.3, HEAD
Persistent key-value database, with built-in net interface
http://redis.io/
Not installed
From: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/master/Formula/redis.rb
==> Options
--with-jemalloc
Select jemalloc as memory allocator when building Redis
--HEAD
Install HEAD version
==> Caveats
To have launchd start redis now and restart at login:
brew services start redis
Or, if you don't want/need a background service you can just run:
redis-server /usr/local/etc/redis.conf
Is there any alternative/workaround to getting Redis up and running (preferably without needing to revert to a prior stable OS release:
it's fixed now, you can do:
brew update
brew install redis
Confirmed working here.
