I also hit the same error. After some investigation I found out what the problem was. It looks like redis is configured to bind to localhost over both ipv6 and ipv4.
On my system I had disabled ipv6 via grub "ipv6.disable=1" therefore the configuration was invalid and redis did not startup. One fix is to change the file /etc/redis/redis.conf - bind 127.0.0.1 ::1 + bind 127.0.0.1 and then try to finish the installation with apt install -f Hope this helps. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1786710 Title: package redis-server 5:4.0.9-1 failed to install/upgrade: installed redis-server package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/redis/+bug/1786710/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
