带有简单Redis应用程序的Node.js抛出``未处理的错误''

Question

I wanted to try out example application from http://expressjs.com/guide.html so I wrote the following :

var express = require('express')
var redis = require('redis')
var db = redis.createClient();
var app = express();

app.use(function(req, res, next){
  var ua = req.headers['user-agent'];
  db.zadd('online', Date.now(), ua, next);
});

app.use(function(req, res, next){
  var min = 60 * 1000;
  var ago = Date.now() - min;
  db.zrevrangebyscore('online', '+inf', ago, function(err, users){
    if (err) return next(err);
    req.online = users;
    next();
  });
});

app.get('/', function(req,res){
  res.send(req.online.length + ' users online');
});


app.listen(3000);

but after trying to launch it I get

events.js:71
        throw arguments[1]; // Unhandled 'error' event
                       ^

Answer 1

Check the port of reddis. If correct, give a wildcard to that port in any firewall which might block it. Check whether something else is using that port. Check your connection settings.
