Ask your question here

Why order processor workflow failed in kubernete environment?
I follow this https://github.com/dapr/quickstarts/tree/master/workflows/csharp/sdk quickstart, package this code to docker image, and then deploy it in k8s environment, but I failed to start workflow.
I has deploy redis component and install redis, demo can see here https://github.com/gongxh13/openfunction-demo/tree/main/dapr/net/workflow
Below is daprd error log

When I add the follow text in redis.yaml component, it work well on my linux k8s

  - name: actorStateStore  # Optional. default: false
    value : true

my final redis.yaml is

apiVersion: dapr.io/v1alpha1
kind: Component
metadata:
  name: statestore
spec:
  type: state.redis
  version: v1
  metadata:
  # These settings will work out of the box if you use `helm install
  # bitnami/redis`.  If you have your own setup, replace
  # `redis-master:6379` with your own Redis master address, and the
  # Redis password with your own Secret's name. For more information,
  # see https://docs.dapr.io/operations/components/component-secrets .
  - name: redisHost
    value: redis-master:6379
  - name: redisPassword
    secretKeyRef:
      name: redis
      key: redis-password
  - name: actorStateStore  # Optional. default: false
    value : true
auth:
  secretStore: kubernetes

But on my mac minikube, it has another error as

Unhandled exception. System.IO.IOException: Function not implemented

Hi - this quickstart was not optimized for k8s ever. However I think your approach to apply redis is a good one. See @joebowbeer's suggetion for minikube.
