Failed to start Advanced key-value store.redis-server.service: Control process exited, code=exited status=1
I just bumped into the same issue with a fresh install of redis 5.0.3 from debian 10.1 packages repository. For me the solution was to give access to the config file (read) and the log file (read-write) to user redis. chown -R redis:redis /var/log/redis chmod -R u+rwX,g+rwX,u+rx /var/log/redis chmod +r /etc/redis/redis.conf
