Thank you , Alan i am also somewhat confused about openais/corosync - which service would qpid use? initially i started corosync on two servers and they seemed to communicate well (but when starting the broker on one of these servers it issued Failed to initialize CPG). then i tried to start openais service and it began complaining with: aisexec: [MAIN ] parse error in config: No interfaces defined aisexec: [MAIN ] AIS Executive exiting (reason: could not read the main configuration file).
and since i have openais.conf (and it has proper interfaces similar to those in corosync.conf) i assumed it was looking for cluster.conf and hence the cman cluster thoughts. i put user qpidd in ais group and also created /etc/corosync/uidgid.d/qpidd: uidgid { uid: qpidd gid: ais } but the blocker seems to be that qpidd cannot find the correct cpg, so the answer might really lie somewhere in these addresses: here is the corosync.conf: compatibility: whitetank totem { version: 2 secauth: off threads: 0 interface { ringnumber: 0 #my network bindnetaddr: 192.168.100.0 mcastaddr: 226.94.1.1 mcastport: 5405 } } logging { fileline: off to_stderr: no to_logfile: yes to_syslog: yes logfile: /var/log/cluster/corosync.log debug: off timestamp: on logger_subsys { subsys: AMF debug: off } } amf { mode: disabled } /sbin/ifconfig: eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:E0:81:C1:00:8F inet addr:192.168.100.115 Bcast:192.168.100.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::2e0:81ff:fec1:8f/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:17421920 errors:0 dropped:154 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:16831241 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:13205968256 (12.2 GiB) TX bytes:10379287406 (9.6 GiB) Memory:fbce0000-fbd00000 btw just tried testcpg and it also fails with "Could not initialize Cluster Process Group API instance error 100" -- View this message in context: http://apache-qpid-users.2158936.n2.nabble.com/qpid-clustering-Failed-to-initialize-CPG-tp6348587p6352045.html Sent from the Apache Qpid users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Apache Qpid - AMQP Messaging Implementation Project: http://qpid.apache.org Use/Interact: mailto:users-subscr...@qpid.apache.org
