Redis Default Config Not Found

I'm following this tutorial to setup a Redis server: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-and-use-redis

and getting this error message:

Mmmmm... the default config is missing. Did you switch to the utils directory?

I'm in the /utils directory, but there doesn't appear to be a default config. From the documentation I've read online, it seems like the config should have been created upon setup. Is this something I have to make manually or is this an installation error? My 'make test' command ran successfully, so I don't know why the config file wouldn't have been set up automatically.

If you're on WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux), you can get this error if you put your Redis folder somewhere that has a path name containing whitespace.

So, like if you put it in the "Program Files" folder. I migrated mine out to just the C:\ drive (or /mnt/c/ for WSL), and it worked just fine.

Had to manually copy default config from the dir above into the correct dir.
