body: <p>I want to cocnect the Redis Docker Component to Spring Boot Session. The docker componenet is up and running</p>
  <pre><code>Steins-MacBook-Air:~ steinkorsveien$ docker exec -it some-redis sh -c &quot;redis-cli&quot;
  127.0.0.1:6379&gt; exit
  </code></pre>
  <p>To Spring Boot I have in the application.properties file</p>
  <pre><code>spring.redis.host=localhost
  spring.redis.password=secret
  spring.redis.port=6379
  </code></pre>
  <p>I have also added the config</p>
  <pre><code>package org.steinko.atm;
  
  import org.springframework.session.data.redis.config.annotation.web.http.EnableRedisHttpSession;
  
  @EnableRedisHttpSession
  public class HttpSessionConfig {
  
  }
  </code></pre>
