Use redis with opencart 3

Hi,
Im trying to us this redis extension with opencart 3
https://www.opencart.com/index.php?rout ... n_id=39520

Were I have to modify the following files:

edit config.php and add
define('CACHE_HOSTNAME', '127.0.0.1');
define('CACHE_PORT', '6379');
define('CACHE_PREFIX', 'redis_');
define('CACHE_EXPIRE', 3600);

edit system/config/default.php
$_['cache_engine'] = 'file'; change file to redis
$_['session_engine'] = 'db'; change db to redis


edit system/config/catalog.php
$_['session_engine'] = 'db'; change db to redis

edit system/config/admin.php
add
define('CACHE_EXPIRE', 3600);

But my hoster told me to put also :
- Redis-pad: /tmp/redis.sock
- Scheme: unix
- Database: choose 0 till 15
- Pass:

Maybe someone can explain me how to get this working

Terrible support there. Takes hours for every question

You will get zero support here. Contact your hosting provider or extension developer on the matter.

apart from the fact that this has nothing to do with journal, redis is only useful if you need to share the data between multiple servers.
For a single server it is useless, then you will be better off putting your session directory on a ram disk or tmpfs.

Well, with 26 Postings in more than 5 Years, it's just another one of them, only
coming here, if one looks for some free help, to make his/her (eventually paid)
Journal Extension work as planned. And if they don't get, what they're expecting
here, they even get pissed. But as long as some support Journal matters here, in
plain contrast to any other paid Extension, it will keep on like this, I fear ...

A strict policy on such would really be required, to keep this place clean of such,
it does sure not add to motivation, to be confronted with that Journal Crab on a
daily schedule, but that's only my personal opinion ...

Really it has nothing to do with free help when I come here.

Most of the time is also to learn something new and read a lot in the forums.
Im not qualified or have the knowledge to give others advise
And what has this to do with Journal
But If you realy desparate in need of money to help me and fix it I would glad to pay you and help you to keep your bussiness running

Maybe move to a host who provides better support?
