How to export from Redis to MongoDB? (My database got wiped)
-
@AOKP
I agree, upgrading to 3.0.5 will certainly not solve the issue, but does not hurt to try
-
@AOKP Well, it persists it to HDD on shutdown. Maybe the server was forced shutdown, and redis didn't have time to save, or the save corrupted the db?
-
If it helps clarifying the issue - when I noticed the forum had crashed and database was gone I tried to use redis-cli to do a proper shutdown - I connected which worked fine and tried running commands - And I got no response to the commands like Redis normally gives.
-
In my case it's saved every 5 minutes onto disk, so I should have lost only 5 minutes, except if as you says, it saved corrupted db.

after corruption I connected to redis without issue but database structure was
instead of
-
Why don't you try AOF instead of RDB?
It can save every second, without any certain performance loss. The only disadvantage is that it uses more disk space.
-
yeah no problem for me using AOF, I need to set it in redis.conf ?
-
@Charly86 yep.
-
I'll check this thanks
-
Another idea would be to configure a cronjob running every X minutes, copying the database.
cp -R /var/lib/redis.rdb /root
-
Yeah I've already put a backup into /etc/cron.hourly as a fix

@pitaj My version is this:
web02:~$ redis-server -v
Redis server v=3.0.3 sha=00000000:0 malloc=jemalloc-3.6.0 bits=64 build=e1e08a07153b9ea1
-
@wellenreiter are you also a OVH user?
-
@AOKP not sure what you mean with OVH and I'm not the one who leased the host, but it's a linode server, so I assume it's a virtual machine
-
@wellenreiter OVH is an ISP, providing servers.
However, I can only assume that something is wrong with your Redis setup or servers.Does anyone uses the Redis repo from Chris Lea?
-
@AOKP said:

However, I can only assume that something is wrong with your Redis setup or servers.Then, why occurs the problem to a number of different installations in just a couple of days on systems that have run fine for month before?
Also as mentioned above, my redis configuration is 99.9% the default config
-
@wellenreiter as said. I am running Redis since May and never had a problem similar to this.
The whole case is indeed very strange...
-
It is really strange and if you count all the different installations mentioned here and in the thread 'lost all my data' I doubt, that it is related to the redis configuration
-
@wellenreiter but then again, why the issue appears also on different NodeBB versions?
Maybe really give the PPA Repo from Chris Lea a try or switch to MongoDB.
