I don't seem to have a locally-installed redis so it should be using the Linux 64-bit one inside the jar.

*** FATAL CONFIG FILE ERROR ***
Reading the configuration file, at line 3
>>> 'maxheap 128M'
Bad directive or wrong number of arguments

it's not maxheap it's maxmemory. Typo in the README.

I also ran into this, however on windows the maxheap option DID work.

At least you don't get a fatal error on windows. I checked the conf file on windows and it does not mention a maxheap option but # maxmemory <bytes>.
I also checked the self documented conf files (versions 2.4, 2.6, 2.8 and 3.0) at redis conf documentation and couldn't find a maxheap option.
Therefore I would recommend using the maxmemory option.

I am a bit confused with commit db9a01b by @jonfreedman. The discussion above suggests to use maxmemory instead of maxheap and the commit contradicts that. Can somebody shed some light to this?

@zabetak that's not my commit, I was saying the same thing as you...
