Php 7.0
Magento 2.1.0 upgrading to 2.2.6
Apache 2.4.6
DB: Maria DB Plesk 17.5.3

I'm having trouble with one of my new sites after upgrading to 2.2.6, from 2.1.0.
Updated composer file, then ran:

composer update

Then from there, I run my usual code for upgrades or any issues which is usually the saviour and after 15-20 minutes (and above for larger sites) everything is good:

rm -rf var/di/* && rm -rf var/generation/* &&   rm -rf var/cache/* && php bin/magento setup:upgrade && php bin/magento setup:di:compile && php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy en_GB en_US  && chmod -R 777 var pub/static  && php bin/magento indexer:reindex &&  php bin/magento cache:clean && php bin/magento cache:flush

However when it gets to the indexer:reindex script I get thrown the following:

sh-4.2$ php bin/magento indexer:reindex
Design Config Grid index has been rebuilt successfully in 00:00:09
PHP Warning:  Uncaught Magento\Framework\Exception\SessionException: Unable to connect to Redis in /var/www/vhosts/EXAMPLE.co.uk/httpdocs/vendor/magento/framework/Session/SaveHandler/Redis.php:65

Now from here I was unable to do anything, no helpful errors and I couldn't get any further. I tried:

php bin/magento indexer:reset
php bin/magento indexer:reindex

And got the same errors as before, so now checking:

sh-4.2$ php bin/magento indexer:status

As you can see, i've got suspended indexers and it says that one of them is currently processing, but has been for a day.

In my logs, the only thing I can see that I assume is related is the following:

[2018-09-24 19:17:39] main.CRITICAL: Connection to Redis redismaster:6379 failed after 1 failures.Last Error : (1) Warning: Redis::connect(): php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Name or service not known in /var/www/vhosts/EXAMPLE.co.uk/httpdocs/vendor/colinmollenhour/credis/Client.php on line 444 [] []

After looking online I can't see anyone else with the same issue. Anyone had or fixed this?

I tried reverting back to 2.1.0 and attempting a second time and the same happened again. However 2.2.5 worked fine, so then tried 2.2.5 to 2.2.6 and the same happened again.

Try to disable redis In app/etc/env.php

Comment line responsible for caching using redis and flush cache.

https://community.magento.com/t5/Magento-2-x-Admin-Configuration/Disabling-Redis-cache-from-command-line/td-p/89599

If this work and you want to use redis you can read documentation how to setup redis server from begining.

Upgrade M2 from 2.2.5 to 2.2.6 with redis throws error on reindex. Solution: Set the different database-numbers on each cache-type solve the problem.

'session' => [
    'save' => 'redis',
    'redis' => [
    'database' => '1',


'cache' => [
    'frontend' => [
        'default' => [
            'backend' => 'Cm_Cache_Backend_Redis',
            'backend_options' => [
               'database' => '2',

etc. Than clear your cache bin/magento cache:clean and after that bin/magento indexer:reindex

Conclusion: Every used redis-cache type must set to uniquie database-number.
