Redis GUI Redis-commander working on Docker - ERROR: Status: reconnecting

I have installed Redis GUI redis-commander by using https://github.com/joeferner/redis-commander

Redis running on localhost:6379 as a container at docker.

This says if I run redis on localhost:6379, all I need to get started is;

docker run --rm --name redis-commander -d -p 8081:8081 ghcr.io/joeferner/redis-commander:latest

redis-commander

But I encountered with this problem... Is there anyone who got this error and found a solution for this ??

Define the redis-commander network as redis network:

redis:
    image: redis:latest
    container_name: redis
    restart: unless-stopped
    volumes:
        - ./docker/redis/data:/data
    networks:
        - app-network #same network here
redis-commander:
    image: rediscommander/redis-commander:latest
    container_name: redis-commander
    environment:
        - REDIS_HOSTS=local:redis:6379
    ports:
        - "8081:8081"
    depends_on:
        - redis
    networks:
        - app-network #and here

You can't forget to add network in the end of docker-composer file:

networks:
  app-network:
    driver: bridge

In my case, the name of database "container_name" was different in "REDIS_HOSTS" parameter:

Services:

db: container_name: redis_db

redis-commander: environment: - REDIS_HOSTS=local:redis_db:6379

There are some things you have to take into account.

  • Redis commander is running inside a container so localhost no longer points to your laptop/desktop/developing machine/server. It points to the container itself where no redis is running. So it will never connect. You need to point to the other container.

  • For this, you should be using some-redis (the name of the container) instead of localhost. In Redis Commander click more and add server to add a new connection

  • But this will not work unless both containers are running inside the same network.

You need to create first a new docker network

docker network create redis

And then run your containers using this parameter --network=redis
