Redis (error) NOAUTH Authentication required

Question

I get the error:

(error) NOAUTH Authentication required.

When in redis-cli and trying to display the KEYS *. I've only set a requirepass not an auth afaiac. I'm in the redis.conf but do not know what to do.

Answer 1

1. redis-cli
2. auth yourpassword
3. shutdown
4. sudo service redis_6379 start

Answer 2

Setting the requirepass configuration directive causes the server to require password authentication with the AUTH command before sending other commands. The redis.conf file states that clearly:

Require clients to issue AUTH before processing any other
commands. This might be useful in environments in which you do not trust
others with access to the host running redis-server.

Answer 3

first run

redis-cli

then after the prompt run

127.0.0.1:6379> AUTH your_password

if all ok you get the OK

Answer 4

1. Make sure you have redis-cli installed.

2. Just use following command.

   redis-cli -h host.domain.com -p port -a yourpassword

Answer 5

comment requirepass (line 480 mostly) in redis.conf file if uncommented.

Answer 6

specific your redis password in the redis-cli command line eg:

redis-cli -h 127.0.0.1 -p 6379 -a "$your_password"

check your $your_password.

It's recommend to add double quote to the password on the command line.

Answer 7

NOAUTH requires to authenticate via AUTH method before executing any get/set/etc. call, in predis that can be done via the auth() method, for example:

    $predisClient->auth('username', 'password');
