"Redis is not initialized" Error on User Signup

I encountered an issue while trying to deploy a modified Docker Compose setup in my homelab. To verify, I tested running it locally and faced the same error.

Steps to Reproduce:

Follow the README instructions:

git clone https://github.com/omnivore-app/omnivore
cd omnivore
docker compose up

Attempt to sign up and observe an unknown error on the frontend.

Expected Behavior: The user should be able to sign up successfully without encountering any errors.

Actual Behavior: The frontend shows an unknown error upon attempting to sign up. The API service logs display the following stack trace:

Environment:

Running locally with default environment variables for testing.

Additional Context: It seems like Redis is not being initialized properly. Happy to provide more logs if needed.
