Install REDIS with Plesk Onyx

This is a quick guide on how to install both the Redis PHP extension as well as the daemon via SSH on a Plesk Onyx webserver.

REDIS provides memory caching for frequently accessed objects.

 

How to install the plugin:

Log in to the command line via SSH as the ROOT user and run the following commands line-by-line.

CentOS

yum groupinstall 'Development Tools'
yum install tcl wget

Debian and Ubuntu

apt-get install build-essential
apt-get install tcl wget

Download and Compile latest Redis 4:

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 your Redis-server Service:

cd utils/
./install_server.sh

Allow memory overcommit

This will allow REDIS to use more memory than it has been allocated by Plesk if required.

echo "vm.overcommit_memory = 1" >>  /etc/sysctl.conf  && sysctl  -p

Disable transparant_hugepage

echo never > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled

Start and test your Redis service

This will ensure REDIS starts when your server boots and checks to ensure the installation completed successfully.

systemctl start redis_6379
systemctl status redis_6379
