News for package redis


Changes:
redis (2:3.0.3-3) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Replace ExecStop in systemd configuration with TimeoutStopSpec. Calls to
    `redis-cli shutdown` were not reliable if the port/UNIX socket had changed
    from the defaults (or is not accessible due to firewalling, permissions,
    etc.)

    Note that we cannot simply remove ExecStop (hence TimeoutStopSpec) as we
    must wait for the server to fully shutdown - it may not have finished
    writing the dump file to disk and thus we would be risking silent data loss
    if it is SIGKILL'd.
