Any ideas ?

This seems to be a serious regression and it would be a real help to know what commands you use or even better: if you have a minimal reproducible test case.
I'll try to fix this right away. I guess you use pub sub?

[leeyo]

@BridgeAR Thanks for your reply. Infact,depend on the backtrack,I don't see where is the call.And in my code,I don't use pub sub command,I only use the rPush command. So that's really weird. And I just rollback to [email protected]，then the exception is gone.

Here is the code:

    var conn = redis.createClient(2379,'127.0.0.1',{detect_buggers:true,auth_pass:'123456'});  
    conn.rpush(roomid,JSON.stringify(packet),function(err){
        conn.end(true);
    });

[BridgeAR]

@leeyo are you sure that's all code you use? I can't reproduce the error with this code.

And please activate the debug_mode and post the output. That way it's a lot easier to spot the error.

@BridgeAR

//=====redis.js======

   var redis = require('redis');

   var  client = {};

  client.configs = {
         password:'123456',
         host: '127.0.0.1',
         port: '2379' 
  };

  client.conns = {};

  client.connect = function(callback){
         if(!this.conns || !this.conns.connected){
                 this.conns =  redis.createClient(this.configs.port,this.configs.host,      {detect_buggers:true,auth_pass:this.configs.password});

               this.conns.on('error',function(err){
                     callback && callback(err);
              });
       }
      return this.conns;
     };

  module.exports = client;

//call redis.js

 var conn =  require('./lib/redis.js').connect();
 conn.rpush(roomid,JSON.stringify(packet),function(err){
       conn.end(true);
 });

That's all the code above.

[BridgeAR]

@leeyo this does not trigger the error for me. Are you absolutely certain there is no other redis code in your app? Maybe in a module that you use?

If you're on linux, you might run grep -r redis . in your folder. This might be a bit verbose though depending on your files. So you might search a bit more specific.

Please also post your used Redis version and print the debug_mode output after triggering the error.

By the way: you have a typo in detect_buffers.

I can testitfy that 2.6.0-2 does not fix the issue. I am using that version and still get this error. However, I don't have such a clean code sample. But I too am using rpush/blpop

The error is more or less immediately preceded by

@jackquack would you be so kind and run your code with v.2.6.1 and use the debug mode? The output is very useful for me to debug this. Currently I don't know where to look at otherwise.

And a code example would be awsome! Even if it's not that clean.

I think that command_obj = undeined .
then I get a error code by redis init.but I get very few time with this error.
so I try change code by follow this code

//index.js
 console.log("this is self.command_queue ")
    var command_obj = self.command_queue.shift();
    console.log(self.command_queue,command_obj);
    if (command_obj && typeof command_obj.callback === 'function') {
        if (command_obj.command !== 'exec') {
            reply = self.handle_reply(reply, command_obj.command, command_obj.buffer_args);
        }
        command_obj.callback(null, reply);
    } else {
        debug('No callback for reply');
    }
}

this is self.command_queue 
{ [String: '']
  '0': undefined,
  '1': undefined,
  '2': undefined,
  _capacity: 16,
  _length: 0,
  _front: 3 } undefined

so it solved

[BridgeAR]

@OrangeBook do you have a self contained example with your code that triggers the issue? Your solution does not fix this issue and would produce lots of side effects.

If the issue is not fixed with v.2.6.4 please ping me to reopen this.
