## The specified compression of type "" but a boolean is expected.

The error happens when your cache configuration is invalid. Check
`typo3conf/LocalConfiguration.php` and
`typo3conf/AdditionalConfiguration.php` looking for something like:

```
'pages' => [
    'backend' => 'TYPO3\\CMS\\Core\\Cache\\Backend\\RedisBackend',
    'options' => [
        'compression' => 1,
    ],
],

```

and change it to

```
'pages' => [
    'backend' => 'TYPO3\\CMS\\Core\\Cache\\Backend\\RedisBackend',
    'options' => [
        'compression' => true,
    ],
],
```
