I want to stop the redis server and it just keeps going and going. I am using redis-2.6.7
Check that it is running:
redis-server It says "...bind: Address already in use" so it is already running.
I have tried
redis-cli redis 127.0.0.1:6379> shutdown It just hangs and nothing happens. I break out and check, yes, it is still running.
I have tried
redis-server stop I get "can't open config file 'stop'"
I tried:
killall redis-server Still running.
The reason that I want to stop it is that it is just hanging when I try to set or get a value via Python. So I thought that I would restart it.
EDIT:
No commands seem to work from redis-cli. I also tried INFO and it just hangs.

You can gracefully shutdown Redis instances (sentinel, slave and master) with the shutdown command. For Redis version older than 3.0 (not very sure), there's no shutdown command for Redis sentinel. But you can just use killall or kill -9 process_id to kill it without any side effect.
you can do it by this way. $redis = new Redis(); $redis->connect('127.0. 0.1', 6379); echo $redis->ping(); and then check if it print +PONG , which show redis-server is running.
On OS X you'll probably have to use launchctl to do this, and on other systems, systemctl or service . On modern Ubuntu, I just use service redis-server stop and service redis-server start , after having installed it with apt-get install redis-server .
I finally got it down.
Get the PID of the process (this worked in Webfaction):
ps -u my_account -o pid,rss,command | grep redis Then
> kill -9 the_pid I was able to REPRODUCE this issue:
Start redis-server Then break it using Pause/Break key Now it hangs and it won't shutdown normally. Also the Python program trying to set/get a key hangs. To avoid this: Just close the window after starting redis-server. It's now running normally.

Shutdown Redis Server $ redis-cli -a password -p 6379 shutdown
Start Redis Server $ sudo service redis_6379 start
It works on Ubuntu Server 14.04 x86 Redis v2.8.15.
