Please add redis and memcached to install script for all php
We do not want to overload hestia, but you can just install them manualy if you need them with apt install phpX.X-redis phpX.X-memcached
X.X stands for the wanted php version, for example 7.3.
You can’t add it as a parameter to the new installation script, the same way you install the multiphp option?
It would be great to have options for the automation of caching systems 
How hard is it to run
apt-get install php-memcached php-redis
In command line? Again we just don’t want to overload Hestia. And currently the installer has way too much options available.
We do not limit the use of any caching software but some basic knowledge of Linux is required to use Hestia with is full potential.

@eris Not that it’s difficult, it just doesn’t work in ubuntu 
(in cents 7 with vestacp works well)

Just did a test install on Debian 10 and Ubuntu and had no issues… Probably IPV6 has been disabled
nano /etc/redis/redis.conf
Change the line bind 127.0.0.1::1 to 127.0.0.1
Change the line supervised no to spervised systemd

That was it, thank you very much!
(I’ve been trying to fix this for a week and I couldn’t find the solution, I hope this answer is helpful to many others)
You can install Redis from source using the following
apt-get install build-essential
apt-get install tcl wget
Download and build
wget http://download.redis.io/redis-stable.tar.gz
tar xvzf redis-stable.tar.gz
cd redis-stable/
make distclean
make
make test
make install
Install Redis server
cd utils/
./install_server.sh
Allow memory overcommit
echo “vm.overcommit_memory = 1” >> /etc/sysctl.conf && sysctl -p
Start and test Redis service
systemctl start redis_yourinstallnamehere
systemctl status redis_yourinstallnamehere
Replace yourinstallnamehere with what you call the Redis service
Forgot to add…
If in the Redis install you get an error
This systems seems to use systemd.
Please take a look at the provided example service unit files in this directory, and adapt and install them. Sorry!
Comment out following lines in redis-stable/utils/install_server.sh file
bail if this system is managed by systemd
_pid_1_exe=“$(readlink -f /proc/1/exe)”
if [ “${_pid_1_exe##*/}” = systemd ]
then
echo “This systems seems to use systemd.”
echo “Please take a look at the provided example service unit files in this directory, and adapt and >install them. Sorry!”
exit 1
fi
then install tk
apt-get install -y tk
then run the installer again
./install_server.sh

Thanks
apt-get install php7.4-package should work

Yeah. I think it is that time of year that Redis should be added as an install option to the Hestia.
It is on our maybe for the future todo list. Feel free to submit a pull request or consider sponsoring such feature…

The problem I’m seeing on this forum is that I am offered like 10 different solutions sot install Redis. And I don’t know which one of those is the correct, or the most correct method. For example, Salnz, on this thread gives this lengthy installation step-by-step guide, others tell you to just do three easy steps. I don’t know what method to follow.
The one method I followed was Felix’s at this thread: Memcached / redis
I don’t know if it works or not, but it seemed to run the installation just fine.

The difference between this two is that @salnz builds it from source, while @Felix uses the system repository with its prebuild packages. We also need to draw a clear line here, we don’t want to make hestia as a replacement for sysadmin skills, it should just help to optimize the work. So as written, the target group are still sysadmins, not people which “just” want to host their website for low costs or people, starting with linux and webhosting.
