Hi All,

We are getting this error message in logstash logs:  
{:timestamp=\>"2016-02-16T13:31:05.697000+0530", :message=\>"Failed to send event to Redis", :event=\>#\<LogStash::Event:0x19f9088 @accessors=#\<LogStash::Util::Accessors:0xc9dee3 @store={"message"=\>"dhdieiidjpie", "@version"=\>"1", "@timestamp"=\>"2016-02-16T06:42:35.738Z", "type"=\>"Test\_check",

We are using logstash-1.5.3 and redis 3.0.1.

Please Guide.

Regards,  
Shrawan

I just solved the same issue in my server, in my case the problem was in the bind ip address of redis, i have been binding to an ip address of 172.16.122.120 which is a Virtual ip shared between 2 redis server, and after i changed the binding ip to the 172.16.122.201 on redis 1 and 172.16.122.202 on redis 2 and make changes to the host option on logstash shipper, it remained sending data to redis on 172.16.122.120. and the same exception has raised `(:message=>"Failed to send event to Redis")`  
i just fixed the issue by changing the following directive on logstash shipper 🙂

> host =\> ["172.16.122.120", "172.16.122.201", "172.16.122.202"]  
> shuffle\_hosts =\> true

Otherwise, i think it's a cache issue, try to find how to clear it.

Note:  
the above config has been put in place to figure out the issue only.

Hi Coder,

Thanks for the Suggestion 🙂

We have tried that but it didn't work. 😔

We have upgraded to logstash-1.5.3 🙂
