The example for unbound + redis doesnt seem right?

[mrmuiz]

Modify unbound.conf to add the following directive:

module-config: "validator cachedb iterator"

But in your docker-compose.yaml it says :

So i gues the example is not as it should be?

I'm not sure I fully understand the issue here?

Can you explain in detail what is wrong with the example config and compose file for redis?

In wich of the 2 configs do i need to
put this : module-config: "validator cachedb iterator"

[klutchell]

Copy the example redis custom config from here and put it in a local directory ./custom.conf.d so the compose file can mount it as described.

You do not need to modify the default config in /etc/unbound as it is configured to load custom configs from /etc/unbound/custom.conf.d.

So I think this section of the README should be updated to reflect that only a custom config is required, with both the server and cachedb options added, so we can avoid directly modifying the root config.

According to this :

This is on Synology by the way

The instruction on how to set this up is also not fully clear to me.
I did add the lines as mentioned to 'custom.conf.d', however I would like to see if this works or not.
How can I check this? The logs don't mention anything?

[klutchell]

@mrmuiz your server config is not importing custom config files, so your cachedb.conf is not used.

You need this at the bottom of unbound.conf

# Allow custom configuration to override the settings above
include-toplevel: /etc/unbound/custom.conf.d/*.conf

And move cachedb.conf to a subdirectory custom.conf.d/ like in the examples.

If this is working, you'll see it in the logs

I'm running in Docker by the way.
If anything should show up in the logs, what would be expected to be showing up?
