I am trying to use the railway internal network for a Redis store in a NodeJS server but I can only connect using the external ipv4 address. Here is the JS connection logic:
const redisClient = createClient({ url: process.env.REDIS_URL });
await redisClient.connect();REDIS_URL is a service variable defined in the NodeJS service.
ipv4 address:redis://default:(password here)@[viaduct.proxy.rlwy.net:27261](viaduct.proxy.rlwy.net:27261)
ipv6 address:redis://default:(password here)@redis.railway.internal:6379
I have also tried redis://default:(password here)@redis:6379 as this is valid schema.
Error Log:
node:internal/process/promises:289
triggerUncaughtException(err, true /* fromPromise */);
^

@nxfi777 I'm also facing the same issue. Seems like the REDIS_URL is undefined even though it's set in the project variables. How did you fix it?
