2021_08_30_050137_add_software_column_to_instances_table fails with redis Unix socket config

[stevenroose]

I'm doing the installation following the official manual and the following artisan command fails with the given error:

$ php artisan migrate --force

  2021_08_30_050137_add_software_column_to_instances_table ..................................................... 12ms FAIL

   InvalidArgumentException

I have redis configured to use Unix sockets with the following:

• set the following redis.conf

  port 0
  unixsocket /var/run/redis/redis-server.sock
  unixsocketperm 770
  

• add my pixelfed user to the redis group (though I run php artisan as root, so that shouldn't be the problem)
• the following relevant section in .env:

  REDIS_CLIENT="predis"
  REDIS_SCHEME="unix"
  REDIS_HOST="/var/run/redis/redis-server.sock"
  REDIS_PASSWORD="null"
  REDIS_PORT="0"

I think this is because the manual wasn't updated after #1602

[stevenroose]

I resolved my issue by doing this: pixelfed/docs#109

Gonna close. The manual MR should fix it.
