Fix “WRONGTYPE Operation against a key holding the wrong kind of value” when using SMEMBERS in Redis
If you get an error that reads “WRONGTYPE Operation against a key holding the wrong kind of value” when using the SMEMBERS command in Redis, it’s probably because you’re passing a key with the wrong data type to the command.
