redis-cli: Unrecognized option or bad number of args for: '--tls'

Question

I'm trying to start a redis server with the support for tls. Based on the documentation (https://redis.io/topics/rediscli) I execute this command:

redis-cli -a xxxxxxxxx --tls --cacert ../config/certs/test-ca.crt

But it return this error:

Unrecognized option or bad number of args for: '--tls'

My redis-cli version is 6.0.9

I can't figure out what am I missing. How can I fix this?

Answer 1

When you performed make of the redis, you should run as: make BUILD_TLS=yes
