[Solved] Why is the Redis extension not working with PHP 8.2? – Php

composer-php pecl redis xampp

The Problem:

I am unable to install the Redis extension for PHP 8.2.4. I installed the DLL file and registered it in the php.ini file but it doesn’t appear in the phpinfo page. The PECL website only provides versions for PHP up to 8.1. Does this mean Redis is not compatible with PHP 8.2.4?

The Solutions:

Solution 1: Install Redis DLL for PHP 8.2

A compatible Redis DLL is available for PHP 8.2. You can download it from this link:

https://github.com/phpredis/phpredis/actions/runs/4930167168#artifacts

After downloading the DLL, follow these steps:

  1. Copy the php_redis.dll file to php\ext folder.
  2. Edit php.ini file and add the following line:
extension=php_redis.dll
  1. Restart Apache or PHP-FPM service.

Now, Redis extension should be working with PHP 8.2.

Note: This solution has been tested and confirmed to work with PHP 8.2.1 and Redis 3.2.100 on Windows 11.
