Install Redis Stack on Linux Support for linuxkit

Closed this issue · 5 comments

Hi, we currently use a distribution of linux called linuxkit (5.10.76-linuxkit) which is the same base image that most CircleCI images are based off.
I can install pretty much every service in here but when I execute these commands, it will error on package not found during the apt-get install command:

curl -fsSL https://packages.redis.io/gpg | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /usr/share/keyrings/redis-archive-keyring.gpg
echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/redis-archive-keyring.gpg] https://packages.redis.io/deb $(lsb_release -cs) main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/redis.list
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install redis-stack-server

I also attempted to use the unpacked binaries and followed this example from https://redis.io/docs/stack/get-started/install/binaries/ but it errored out on missing libraries as well as missing GLIBC_2.29 which is not yet available on this distro.

Starting redis-stack-server, database path /var/lib/redis-stack
./bin/redis-server: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.29' not found (required by ./bin/redis-server)
./bin/redis-server: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libssl.so.1.1: version `OPENSSL_1_1_1' not found (required by ./bin/redis-server)
./bin/redis-server: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.28' not found (required by ./bin/redis-server)

Given that running any version of redis is possible under this distribution of linux, would it be possible to provide a deb package that can be installed as well?

@rapito It certainly sounds reasonble. But.. I need a bit of an education ;). Is there any (easy) way for me to run a linuxkit based docker so that we can compile/package/test/validate? Also, which package did you download - can I have a direct link?

You mention CircleCI images being based on linuxkit - so I grabbed cimg/base:2021.04. That's effectively an ubuntu focal - meaning we have packages as a debian archive and tarballs.

Hi @chayim, our images are based off circleci/ruby:2.6.5-stretch-node https://hub.docker.com/r/circleci/ruby/tags?page=1&name=2.6.5-stretch-node. You can reference it from docker hub.

So I've got good news, and bad news sports fans... We don't currently build on Debian Stretch. I took the Ubuntu xenial binaries are tried to make those work but unfortunately there's a libssl mismatch. The bionic binaries have the glibc mismatch issue.

On the bright side, I'm about to release versions that support Debian bullseye - and circleci/ruby:2.6.9-bullseye-node exists.

Any chance that might your need? I'm... hoping!

Ping @rapito ... I'd love to get this in the end of June release...

Hi @chayim sorry I missed the ping
We managed to use a redis + redis stack image that we could spawn up on circle ci with already exposed ports:
image: redis/redis-stack:latest

Seems like the new dependency on GLIBC version is making noise on older linux distros as well...
Since we managed to fill our need, I'm closing this now.

I'm still noting the debian bullseye support, that's very nice!
Thanks for the help!
