using redis giving error

Question

I have installed redis by following links . https://github.com/mranney/node_redis

and trying

var redis = require("redis"),
    client = redis.createClient();

client.on("error", function (err) {
    console.log("Error " + err);
});

client.set("string key", "string val", redis.print);
client.hset("hash key", "hashtest 1", "some value", redis.print);
client.hset(["hash key", "hashtest 2", "some other value"], redis.print);
client.hkeys("hash key", function (err, replies) {
    console.log(replies.length + " replies:");
    replies.forEach(function (reply, i) {
        console.log("    " + i + ": " + reply);
    });
    client.quit();
});

and running node test.js

gives me this error why ?

Error Error: Redis connection to 127.0.0.1:6379 failed - ECONNREFUSED, Connection refused

why this error is coming ? and what should i do ?

Are you sure the Redis server is running, and you did not set a password on it? — Colum

You need to make sure the server is running before you can not access it in Node.Js

It is worth noting that you first must install the redis server by running

sudo apt-get install redis-server

and then if it is not running you can start it by running

redis-server
