I tried to setup a local QPixel instance (WSL - Ubuntu 20.04) and followed the guide by luap42.

I finally run rails -s and got

at which point I interruppted the process. There is an error Redis::CannotConnectError: Error connecting to Redis on 127.0.0.1:6379 which hints that I did not configure redis correctly. But how do I do that?

My config\database.yml content is identical with config\database.sample.yml except for the default username and password.

What would I have to do on a Ubuntu to get Redis running and QPixel being able to connect to Redis that isn't already mentioned in the guide.

Likely Redis server is not running. Start with sudo systemctl start redis-server.service or with sudo service redis-server start or with redis-server.

Check with redis-cli and inserting "ping" in the prompt, receiving "PONG".

See for example Redis Quickstart or How to install and configure Redis on Ubuntu 20.04.
