want to run redis-server in background nonstop

问题

I have downloaded redis-2.6.16.tar.gz file and i installed sucessfully. After installed i run src/redis-server it worked fine.

But i don't want manually run src/redis-server everytime, rather i want redis-server running as background process continuously.

So far after installed i did following tasks:

1. vim redis.conf and i changed to

# By default Redis does not run as a daemon. Use 'yes' if you need it.
# Note that Redis will write a pid file in /var/run/redis.pid when daemonized.
  daemonize yes

But same result i found. What mistake i did?

After redis run in background. I will run juggernaut also as background process with following command.

nohup node server.js

But i am not able to make redis run in background. Please provide some solution.

Since Redis 2.6 it is possible to pass Redis configuration parameters using the command line directly. This is very useful for testing purposes.

redis-server --daemonize yes

Check if the process started or not:

ps aux | grep redis-server

I think the best way is to use Redis' config file:

# By default Redis does not run as a daemon. Use 'yes' if you need it.
# Note that Redis will write a pid file in /var/run/redis.pid when daemonized.
daemonize yes

Set daemonize to yes in the config file. Say the file is ~/.redis/redis.conf, then just run

$ redis-server ~/.redis/redis.conf

And it just works.

Or you can simply run it as src/redis-server redis.conf&
