## 6. Redis
As of this writing, most Debian/Ubuntu distributions ship with Redis 2.2 or
2.4. GitLab requires at least Redis 2.8.
GitLab requires at least Redis 2.8.
Ubuntu users [can use a PPA](https://launchpad.net/~chris-lea/+archive/ubuntu/redis-server)
to install a recent version of Redis.
The following instructions cover building and installing Redis from scratch:
If you are using Debian 8 or Ubuntu 14.04 and up, then you can simply install
Redis 2.8 with:
```sh
# Build Redis
wget http://download.redis.io/releases/redis-2.8.23.tar.gz
tar xzf redis-2.8.23.tar.gz
cd redis-2.8.23
make
sudo apt-get install redis-server
```
# Install Redis
cd utils
sudo ./install_server.sh
If you are using Debian 7 or Ubuntu 12.04, follow the special documentation
on [an alternate Redis installation](redis.md). Once done, follow the rest of
the guide here.

# Install Redis on old distributions
GitLab requires at least Redis 2.8. The following guide is for Debian 7 and
Ubuntu 12.04. If you are using Debian 8 or Ubuntu 14.04 and up, follow the
[installation guide](installation.md).
## Install Redis 2.8 in Debian 7
Redis 2.8 is included in the Debian Wheezy [backports] repository.
1. Edit `/etc/apt/sources.list` and add the following line:
```
deb http://http.debian.net/debian wheezy-backports main
```
1. Update the repositories:
```
sudo apt-get update
```
1. Install `redis-server`:
```
sudo apt-get -t wheezy-backports install redis-server
```
1. Follow the rest of the [installation guide](installation.md).
## Install Redis 2.8 in Ubuntu 12.04
We will [use a PPA](https://launchpad.net/~chris-lea/+archive/ubuntu/redis-server)
to install a recent version of Redis.
1. Install the PPA repository:
```
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:chris-lea/redis-server
```
Your system will now fetch the PPA's key. This enables your Ubuntu system to
verify that the packages in the PPA have not been interfered with since they
were built.
1. Update the repositories:
```
sudo apt-get update
```
1. Install `redis-server`:
```
sudo apt-get install redis-server
```
1. Follow the rest of the [installation guide](installation.md).
