Hi Taher,

I'll try to have a look today.

Hey Folks. I know everyone's probably preoccupied. It would be great to get
some feedback on OFBIZ-9392 though given how critical this piece of code
is. I'd feel much better about committing after a few reviews.

Hi Michael,

I think most of our documentation is outdated. So your best bet is [1]. I
look forward to your feedback.

@Scott you seem to have good experience with clustering, It would be
really great if we can have your eyes on the code or some testing of the
functionality.

Hi Taher,

Okay, after a little bit of investigation I think I got what caused the
crashes on my machine:
- I removed "cluster.registerManager(manager);" from the code base
because
it was commented out in the original code base

That explains why I didn't get these errors with the pre-refactoring
setup :-)

- I commented out "<property name="mcast-bind-addr" value="192.168.2.1"/>"
from ofbiz-component.xml because it was conflicting with my local LAN
setup.

I did the same with the current trunk and now OFBiz is starting with
enabled clustering.

After doing the above and testing the cluster, everything worked. Bug
again, given that I'm treading in new territory, appreciate all the help.

Do we have some documentation on how to setup the cluster environment for
testing, to have some kind of reference setup?
It would help to make testing easier.

I will try to review your patch in the next days.

Regards,
Michael


The new patch is available at

So the good thing is that the refactoring exercise surfaced this issue.
Based on feedback from Scott and Michael I suspect that the issue might
be
perhaps minor such as a missing configuration or dependency that's
causing
all these errors.

I'll try to dig out the root cause and your help would be great to try
and
zoom in on the problem preferably on the refactored code, but even
finding
the root cause on existing code would greatly help.

Cheers,

Taher

The project I'm currently on is actively using clustering (session
replication) and I know for certain this isn't the only project nor
are we
the only vendor to use it.  I'm using an older version of OFBiz though
so
I
can't confirm if the latest codebase has it working.  It can be tricky
to
set up and does have a tendency to crash ofbiz during startup if you
don't
have it configured correctly.

Definitely a -1 for removal.

Hi Everyone,
In reference to [1] and the refactoring work, and after multiple

different

tests, I came to realize that Tomcat clustering implementation is
broken
(both before and after the refactoring). The reasons are complex but

they

essentially have to do with setting up the right parameters for the
cluster. So I suspect no one is using this feature?

It is therefore, my recommendation to remove clustering from
CatalinaContainer which would substantially reduce complexity of both

the

component configuration file and the accompanying source code which

would

shave off at least 120 lines of code.

WDYT

Hey folks,
It was very painful and slow, but I finally got a working almost
full-rewrite of the CatalinaContainer. I need help with testing,

reviews,
and code improvements.
Details are found in [1]. There are no functional changes, just a

rewrite.

I appreciate all the help and feedback.
