I'm trying to run sidekiq worker with Rails. When I try to docker-compose up worker I get the following error:

I've tried different configurations, I've checked other builds, but the problem still persists, So far, Sidekiq runs well outside of Docker.

Check if your redis server is running, start redis by using the following command in the terminal:

redis-server
