SignalR cannot connect to Azure Redis on SSL

I am currently hosting my redis cache server on Azure, and have signalR relying on it as the backbone using the following...

GlobalHost.DependencyResolver.UseRedis("Server",port,"password","eventKey");

This works find on port 6379 (non-SSL) but my chat app breaks when I try to connect to the SSL port (6380) of my Azure Redis server, and the hub is never started. What could be the cause of this issue? Or am I doing something wrong?

This is the error that appears on /signalr/connect in my browser net::ERR_CONNECTION_RESET

Solution

  • You can try this: GlobalHost.DependencyResolver.UseRedis(new RedisScaleoutConfiguration(connectionString, "YourServer"));

    And connection string something like:

    connectionString="yourNameHere.cache.windows.net,ssl=true,password=YourPasswordKey"

    Make sure you are using SignalR built with StackExchange.Redis (latest is gratest ;)
