One of my application suddenly started to give error: 

Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'RedisException' with message 'Redis server went away' in /var/www/_slim/_core/system/generator.001.php:133 Stack trace: #0 /var/www/_slim/_core/system/generator.001.php(133): Redis->auth('77B1BFFBC0378DF...') #1 /var/www/_slim/_core/system/generator.007.php(144): Generator001->r6_redis_start('R') #2 /var/www/_slim/_core/system/generator.007.php(26): Generator007->HarvestRedis() #3 /var/www/_slim/_core/system/generator.shopping.php(14): Generator007->Generator007() #4 /var/www/_slim/_core/system/generator.last.php(43): Generator008->Generator008() #5 /var/www/_slim/site/home/php/index.php(16): GeneratorLast->GeneratorLast() #6 /var/www/index.php(96): Gui->Gui()
#7 {main} thrown in /var/www/_slim/_core/system/generator.001.php on line 133

I have reinstalled redis-server but no luck so far. Any suggestions?

Maybe not the answer to the specific question, but might help those new to Redis who come here by googling the Exception.

You will also get this exception if you create a Redis instance and start to call methods on it without first connecting to a Redis server by calling 

$redis->connect('localhost')

The arguments for the call should obviously be adjusted if Redis is not a local host, configured to listen on a different port, set up a password etc.
