im confuse with redis instalation. I’ve already tried uninstall redis with any tutorials, also trying uninstall manually. But, redis still used 6379 port.

dna@dna:~$ sudo netstat -tulnp | grep 6379
[sudo] password for dna:    
tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:6379            0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      22141/redis-server

dna@dna:~$ redis-cli

my docker apps used redis already stopped, also the redis image already removed too.
Here’s my os:

dna@dna:~$ hostnamectl

  1. Well, there is your answer! redis is still installed, via snap.
    This should do the trick:

    sudo snap remove redis
    

    What’s the output of ps -auxf | grep -i redis?

    Perhaps another redis application is installed, what is the output of apt list installed | grep -i redis?

    Also, what is the output of systemctl | grep -i redis

    If all that doesn’t bring any valueable hints, try to install mlocate w apt install mlocate -y ; updatedb.

    Then perform a search for every redis file on disk:

    locate -i redis

  2. You can try to login in as root, then uninstall redis-server. Because the account dna does not have access to read the file /var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend.

  3. You can find the PID that is listening on port 6379 with the following command: fuser -n tcp 6379

    An example:

    [root@server ~]# fuser -n tcp 22
    22/tcp:               4837 34711
    [root@server ~]# 
    

    If you cannot stop the service, you can kill it: kill -9 <pid>
