brew install redis (osx 10.7)

问题:

i tried installing Redis on osx 10.7 via homebrew in bash and I get the following error:

==> Downloading http://redis.googlecode.com/files/redis-2.6.9.tar.gz
Already downloaded: /Library/Caches/Homebrew/redis-2.6.9.tar.gz
==> make -C /private/tmp/redis-wQAX/redis-2.6.9/src CC=cc
Error: Permission denied - /usr/local/var/db

Redis is not installed from what i can tell.

$ ps -aux | grep redis
ps: No user named 'x'

I cannot find the solution and don't know who to ask! Please let me know if you have workaround or solution/suggestion to this. Thank you!

I am also using osx 10.7. I think you don't need to install Redis via homebrew. You can just follow the simple instructions in redis homepage:

in bash:

cd /usr/local/var/
ls

the directory 'db' is most likely missing, create it:

mkdir db

then run

brew install redis

check /usr/local/var/log

ls

most likely the directory 'log' is missing, create it

mkdir log
brew install redis
