How to specify the password for redis connection in docker-compose.yaml file ?

Hi all,

I am required to set authentication for the Redis server (bitnami/redis image)  (Email server microservices) for production on-site deployment email server.

Setting the password from the docker-compose file using REDIS_PASSWORD : 123abc as the environment variable, creates the password authentication successfully. the issue I am having is specifying the new password in my Redis connection string which is used by ListenerAPI & ListenerWorker containers. 

The docker-compose file

version: "3.8"

services:

  redisOfficial:

    image: 'docker.io/bitnami/redis'

    container_name: 'redisOfficial'

    restart: unless-stopped

    environment:

      REDIS_PASSWORD : 123abc # redis Authentication mode

      REDIS_AOF_ENABLED : "no"

    ports:

      - "6379:6379"

  rabbitmqOfficial:

   image: rabbitmq:management-alpine

   container_name: 'rabbitmqOfficial'

   restart: unless-stopped

   volumes:

    - ./rabbitmq.config:/etc/rabbitmq/rabbitmq.config:ro

    - ./definitions.json:/etc/rabbitmq/definitions.json:ro

   ports:

    - 5672:5672 # AMQP protocol port

    - 15672:15672 # HTTP management UI

  ListenerAPI:

    image: registry.creatio.com/emaillistener:1.0.24

    container_name: 'ListenerAPI'

    restart: unless-stopped

    ports:

      - 10000:8080 # Port forward. External port:local port

#      - 10001:8443 # SSL port by default. Uncomment if https endpoint needed

    environment:

      ExchangeListenerRedisHost: redisOfficial:6379 # Redis connection

      ExchangeListenerRedisPassword: "123abc"

      ExchangeListenerRedisDatabase: 0 # Redis DB

      PodName: ExchangeListener

# SSL certificate parameters by default. Uncomment if https endpoint needed

#      ASPNETCORE_Kestrel__Certificates__Default__Password: password

#      ASPNETCORE_Kestrel__Certificates__Default__Path: /https/el_self_signed.pfx

    depends_on:

      - redisOfficial

      - rabbitmqOfficial

    volumes:

# SSL certificate folder by default. Uncomment if https endpoint needed

#     - ./ssl:/https:ro

     - ./appsettings.json:/app/config/appsettings.json:ro

     - ./rmqsecret.json:/app/config/rabbitmq.secrets.json:ro

#    dns:

#      - 10.0.7.1

#      - 10.0.7.2

#    dns_search:

#      - tscrm.com

  ListenerWorker:

    image: registry.creatio.com/emaillistener-worker:1.0.24

    container_name: 'ListenerWorker'

    restart: unless-stopped

    environment:

      ExchangeListenerRedisHost: redisOfficial:6379 # Redis connection

      ExchangeListenerRedisPassword: "123abc"

      ExchangeListenerRedisDatabase: 0 # Redis DB

      PodName: ExchangeListenerWorker

    depends_on:

      - redisOfficial

      - rabbitmqOfficial

    volumes:

     - ./appsettings.json:/app/appsettings.json:ro

     - ./rmqsecret.json:/app/appsettings.Production.json:ro

#    dns:

#      - 10.0.7.1

#      - 10.0.7.2

#    dns_search:

#      - tscrm.com\

When I run this container in docker, i am getting blow mentioned container log for the LisenterAPI container

2024-01-24 13:24:01 [Microsoft.AspNetCore.Server.Kestrel] 2024-01-24 07:54:01,426 [40] ERROR: Connection id "0HN0SM07SMRGL", Request id "0HN0SM07SMRGL:00000018": An unhandled exception was thrown by the application.

2024-01-24 13:24:01 StackExchange.Redis.RedisConnectionException: It was not possible to connect to the redis server(s). There was an authentication failure; check that passwords (or client certificates) are configured correctly.

I suspect the way (syntax) password is specified docker-compose file is not supported for the LisenterAPI container. How to fix this issue?

Note: Container connections work fine because, if I use ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD : "yes" for redis environment variable, the service works perfectly.
