Hi Tobias.

Thank you for your question. This is a known issue with SquirroToolbox and it will be resolved in the upcoming versions. We will keep you posted on this.

In the mean time, what you can do is to try to locate a folder called “.squirro” (usually can be found in the home directory).

cd ~
ls -la .squirro

If the directory still couldn’t be found, you can try:

find / -type d -name ".squirro"

Once you’re inside the “.squirro” directory, create a new file called common.ini if it does not exist already. Open it in a file editor and add the following lines to it.

[redis_cache]
host = redis-cache

Finally, try rerunning pipelet validate production_date.py. Please do not hesitate to get back to us if you encounter any problem during the process.

Regards,
Freddy
