ConnectionTimeoutError: Connection timeout

[younes-io]

I get this error and I don't understand why:

How do I get more details about this:

/mnt/c/dev/client-adapter/node_modules/redis/dist/lib/socket.js:157
            socket.setTimeout(__classPrivateFieldGet(this, _RedisSocket_options, "f").connectTimeout, () => socket.destroy(new errors_1.ConnectionTimeoutError()));
                                                                                                                           ^

This also happened for us when mocking time. For some reason the error only occurred in ci/cd server which has different timezone. This thread helped to figure out the following workaround:

this.clock = sinon.useFakeTimers({ now: DateTime.now().setZone('UTC').toMillis(), toFake: ['Date'], });

const client = redis.createClient({ socket: { host: hostName, port: 6380, tls: true }, password: azureKey, });

This works for me, I am using azure cache service - Redis version 6

Since Node 23.0, localhost seems to get translated as ::1 (IPV6), which caused this error for me. Specifying 127.0.0.1 did the trick but it's unfortunate that this happened at all.
