Laravel - Redis - Configuring TLS with CA

Question

I'm trying to configure the Redis config file in Laravel 8.75.0 (for cache purposes) to use TLS with a certificate authority certificate. At the moment, my config file looks like this (based on this answer: https://stackoverflow.com/a/48876398/10031033):

'options' => [
        'cluster' => env('REDIS_CLUSTER', 'redis'),
        'prefix' => env('REDIS_PREFIX', Str::slug(env('APP_NAME', 'laravel'), '_').'_database_'),
        'ssl' => ['cafile' => env('REDIS_CACHE_SSL_CA', null), 'verify_peer' => env('REDIS_CACHE_SSL_VerifyCA', false)]
    ],

    'cache' => [
        'scheme' => env('REDIS_CACHE_SCHEME', 'tcp'),
        'host' => env('REDIS_CACHE_HOST', '127.0.0.1'),
        'password' => env('REDIS_CACHE_PASSWORD', null),
        'port' => env('REDIS_CACHE_PORT', 6379),
        //  'database' => env('REDIS_CACHE_DB', 1),
    ],

I'm sure that the variables work and the connection works as the following config works perfectly.

        $vm = array(
        'host'     => env('REDIS_CACHE_HOST'),
        'port'     => env('REDIS_CACHE_PORT'),
        'timeout' => 0.8, 
        'scheme' => env('REDIS_CACHE_SCHEME'),
        'ssl'    => ['cafile' => env('REDIS_CACHE_SSL_CA'), 'verify_peer' => env('REDIS_CACHE_SSL_VerifyCA')],
    );

    $redis = new Client($vm);
    $redis->auth(env('REDIS_CACHE_PASSWORD'));
    try {
        echo $redis->ping();
    } catch (\Exception $e) {
     //   dd($e);
        echo 'not';
    }

Does anybody know what I'm doing wrong here? I've been trying for a couple of hours but can't seem to get it to work.

Thank you
