Error 111 connecting to localhost:6379. Connection refused. Django Heroku

Question

I am able to run redis locally and everything works.

However when I deploy to heroku I get this error:

Error 111 connecting to localhost:6379. Conn         


        

Answer 1

for me, I noticed that the port number was wrong, so I simply fixed it.

    app = Celery("tasks", broker="redis://localhost:6379")
