I’m not sure where to start and where I should go to ask for the issue I’m having. Hopefully I can get solution or direction here. Apologise if these are confusing. Questions at the end.

BASE

1. rails 5.2 + resque + resque-schedule
2. enqueue job through rails resque:scheduler
3. has following job

    class ThisJob < ActiveJob::Base
        queue_as :high

        def perform
            cache-A = Rails.cache.fetch('cache-key', namespace: 'appname:cache') { -- cache-data -- }

            task-A # insert into database by mixing values from cache-A
        end
    end

macOS: Install redis 5 via homebrew

Ubuntu 18.04: Install redis 5 by following How To Install Redis from Source on Ubuntu 18.04

EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR

cache-key can be fetched from ApplicationController and ActionJob
cache-key is stored in Redis

macOS:

1. Run redis-server, rails s, rails resque:scheduler, rails resque:work queue=* in that sequence from terminal.
2. worker executes ThisJob and it works as expected
3. redis-cli keys * return cache-key.

This is what i get from redis-cli monitor if cache-key is not present.

Ubuntu 18.04:

1. Boot redis-server, rails s, rails resque:scheduler, rails resque:work queue=* from systemd
2. worker executes ThisJob, it goes straight to cache-data, then executes task-A. It does not fetch cache-key.
3. redis-cli keys * does not return cache-key.

This is what i get from redis-cli monitor if cache-key is not present.

ATTEMPT in Ubuntu 18.04:

1. Tried to trigger ThisJob.perform_now from index.html.erb, and it works as expected.
2. Tried running rails s, rails resque:scheduler, rails resque:work queue=* in that sequence from terminal, and the result just like when running from systemd.
3. redis-cli keys * has cache-key

cache-A = Rails.cache.read('cache-key', namespace: 'appname:cache')

cache-A returns null

Questions

1. Is it because macOS and Ubuntu have differences in running Redis?
2. Is it because homebrew and apt install have differences in building Redis?
3. Any idea how to make this scheduler fetch Redis cache?
4. Something I missed?

Thank you.
