      Hello there,

      It is the first time I am dealing with JBoss clustering using JGroups. Basically, I have been recently handed over a live application running on JBoss 4.0 platform using Jboss-cache and Hibernate. This application is deployed in a clustered environment with 4 nodes, running on separate Win 2000 Adv.Svr boxes.

      Everything was running fine until I changed the ip address mapping of the smtp host (used by the nodes) in the hosts files and restarted the machines. Following that I keep getting this error message in the JBoss log files:

      2005-02-16 01:08:46,500 WARN [caw.util.hibernate.cache.JBossTreeCacheService] No transaction manager lookup class has been defined. TX will be null

      It seems like the restarted nodes are trying to joing the cluster but are being unable to. Can someone point me in the direction to further localize this problem. I need to have this up and running before morning, so am pretty desparate.

      Please Help!!

      Many thanks
