 * When I ran the WordPress core update yesterday, everything ran fine and then 
   at the end it said our database needed updating so I OK’d that as well. When 
   finished (or while running the Db update), we were kicked out of the site (couldn’t
   access the admin dashboard). The site was functional, but looked way off…like
   the theme was broken or something. To troubleshoot the cause, our Db administrator
   removed all the plugin folders which fixed the site and we finally nailed down
   the source which was Redis. I know this is my fault because I now know I should’ve
   cleared the cache beforehand and probably deactivated it first(?), but I guess
   I’m wondering if you have any ideas on how I can fix this now? When he added 
   the folder back, it subsequently broke the site again. We assume the plugin was
   corrupted somehow — is that possible? I noticed that the object-cache.php file
   is still located in the /wp-content/ folder, could that have something to do 
   with it? We have a large site, so this plugin helps tremendously!

 * Hey! After re-enabling the plugin and flushing the entire database, does the 
   site work again?

 * When we tried re-enabling it (or even when he just restored the plugin folder
   via FTP), it automatically kicked us out of the admin area again so I couldn’t
   clear the cache. Do you think I could just re-install the plugin from the WP 
   directory and that might fix it instead of him adding the old folder back to 
   the plugin folder using FTP?

 * No, you probably have to flush your Redis database by hand:
 * `redis-cli flushall`, or you might be able to use `wp cache flush` after enabling
   the plugin.

 * Is this resolved? I’ve got 2.0.10 but it seems to resolve nothing.
 * I’ve now got a broken theme and cannot login.
 * I fluched cache
    I even created a new redis db
 * When I disable the plugin, all works as normal

 * Hi @tvdsluijs, are you using any other caching plugins, if so can you try disabling
   them all. From someone who had issues:
 * > Our recommendation to update Redis -> 2.0.10 from 2.0.8 if you didn’t WordPress
   > to 5.5:
   >  1. Disable Object Cache (Tools-> Redis) 2. Update to 5.5 3. whatever
   > cache plugin you are using – use: clear cache Pre-load regenerate CSS 4. Update
   > Redis plugin 5. FLASHALL
   > We also added one more step, clear again the caching plugin, and pre-load it
   > back to our procedure – but it should work even without it.
   > If you already update both and having problems:
   >  1. Disable both f the plugin
   > 2. manual log to Redis-cli: FLASHALL 3. enable the cache plugin you are using–
   > use: clear cache Pre-load regenerate CSS Re-enable Redis plugin after.
