At this point, you can make use of a delivered, interactive utility to configure Redis as a service (it generates an init.d script) and to generate a Redis configuration file. This step can be bypassed if the installation is done solely for local development. To run the setup utility, execute the following command (with sudo):
sudo utils/install_server.sh
The install_server.sh utility will prompt for a few specific settings. Leaving the defaults and providing the path to the server executable returns a summary similar to this:
Selected config:Port : 6379Config file : /etc/redis/6379.confLog file : /var/log/redis_6379.logData dir : /var/lib/redis/6379Executable : /local/redis/src/redis-serverCli Executable : /local/redis/src/redis-cli ...
