Bug #: 52529
Summary: Tomcat stops working after NullPointerException
Product: Tomcat 7
Version: 7.0.14
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: critical
Priority: P2
Component: Cluster
AssignedTo: dev@tomcat.apache.org
ReportedBy: dan...@orbisfn.com
Classification: Unclassified
I have a cluster of 2 Tomcats, both are 7.0.14; the config for cluster is as
follows:
<!-- Cluster configuration -->
<Cluster className="org.apache.catalina.ha.tcp.SimpleTcpCluster"
channelSendOptions="8">
<Manager className="org.apache.catalina.ha.session.DeltaManager"
expireSessionsOnShutdown="false" notifyListenersOnReplication="true"/>
<Channel className="org.apache.catalina.tribes.group.GroupChannel">
<Membership
className="org.apache.catalina.tribes.membership.McastService"
address="228.0.0.4" port="50000" ttl="1"
frequency="500" dropTime="3000"
/>
<Receiver
className="org.apache.catalina.tribes.transport.nio.NioReceiver"
address="192.168.110.96" port="8000" autoBind="100"
selectorTimeout="5000" maxThreads="6"
/>
<Sender
className="org.apache.catalina.tribes.transport.ReplicationTransmitter">
<Transport

</Sender>
<Interceptor
className="org.apache.catalina.tribes.group.interceptors.TcpFailureDetector"/>
<Interceptor
className="org.apache.catalina.tribes.group.interceptors.MessageDispatch15Interceptor"/>
</Channel>
<Valve className="org.apache.catalina.ha.tcp.ReplicationValve"
filter=""/>
<Valve
className="org.apache.catalina.ha.session.JvmRouteBinderValve"/>
<ClusterListener
className="org.apache.catalina.ha.session.JvmRouteSessionIDBinderListener"/>
<ClusterListener
className="org.apache.catalina.ha.session.ClusterSessionListener"/>
</Cluster>
It has started running this week. Thus far, every single day both Tomcats go
offline and stop responding at around the same time due to the following error:
Tomcat 1 - 2012-01-25 14:58:09,246 [Tribes-Task-Receiver-3] ERROR
org.apache.catalina.ha.session.DeltaManager- Manager [domain#]: Unable to
receive message through TCP channel
java.lang.NullPointerException
Tomcat 2 - 2012-01-25 15:00:24,427 [Tribes-Task-Receiver-5] ERROR
org.apache.catalina.ha.session.DeltaManager- Manager [other domain#]: Unable to
receive message through TCP channel
java.lang.NullPointerException
This is followed by the following until both are stopped and restarted one at a
time:

This is becoming a hurdle for our platform and I'm not sure where the problem
happens as there's no stack trace in the causing exception. Is it possible to
modify Tomcat's cluster logic to be highly fault tolerant? It seems that taking
down whole Tomcat because something had happened during session sync to be a
bad and quite dangerous logic.
