Benjamin Reed commented on ZOOKEEPER-710: ----------------------------------------- lukasz thank you for the logs! they have really helped pinpoint the problem. it appears that message delays are the cause of the problem. it appears that what is happening is that the client is connecting to a follower that is running very slow. the follower is slow processing the reconnect request and forwarding it to the leader. for example, the following shows a case where it takes 7 seconds for the follower to process a reestablish connection request. {quote} zookeeper-node3.log.2010-03-16:2010-03-16 14:21:41,267 - INFO [NIOServerCxn.Factory:2181:nioserverc...@964] - Finished init of 0x224ea5675b4007b valid:true zookeeper-node3.log.2010-03-16:2010-03-16 14:21:48,937 - INFO [NIOServerCxn.Factory:2181:nioserverc...@612] - Renewing session 0x224ea5675b4007b {quote} the problem is that within that 7 seconds a client can drop the connection to the follower and establish a connection to the leader. if the renew session request is delayed until after the client reestablishes the connection with the leader, the session will get marked as managed by the previous follower and all requests set to the leader will get MOVED error, which is what you are seeing. the problem is that we consider the MOVED error to be a request error rather than a connection error. the leader needs to drop the connection when it sees the MOVED error so that the client can reestablish the session properly with another machine. > permanent ZSESSIONMOVED error after client app reconnects to zookeeper cluster > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: ZOOKEEPER-710 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-710 > Project: Zookeeper > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 3.2.2 > Environment: debian lenny; ia64; xen virtualization > Reporter: Lukasz Osipiuk > Attachments: app1.log.2010-03-16.gz, app2.log.2010-03-16.gz, > zookeeper-node1.log.2010-03-16.gz, zookeeper-node2.log.2010-03-16.gz, > zookeeper-node3.log.2010-03-16.gz > > > Originally problem was described on Users mailing list starting with this > [post|http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/hadoop-zookeeper-user/201003.mbox/<3b910d891003160743k38e2e7c9y830b182d88396...@mail.gmail.com>]. > Below I restate it in more organized form. > We occasionally (few times a day) observe that our client application > disconnects from Zookeeper cluster. > Application is written in C++ and we are using libzookeeper_mt library.
