    Clustering Problem

    sudya

      I am trying to setup a cluster with 2 servers. Both of them have Windows 2003 Enterprise and both have the out of the box ejb-clustered configuration.
      As the manual says, everything should work without any changes. In my case each server says that he is the first one in the cluster and they don't want to connect. What are the step to make clustering work on Windows?

      Thanks in advance.

          Same problem.

          I've been trying with JBoss 4.2.1 and Windows XP with "-b 0.0.0.0" startup configuration. I've also tried to change loopback parameter, but without success.

          - On Windows machines, because of the media sense feature being broken with multicast
           (even after disabling media sense) set the UDP protocol's loopback attribute to true

            maybe you tried to start 2 server at the same time, so they can't see each other...

            I have a problem also, let's say i have node A and B seeing each other as cluster members, and i tried to shutdown A, B will take-over and the failover works. but when i tried to restart A, A cannot detect B as member and discarding messages from B. then i stopped B, waited for a while and restart B again, this time A and B can see each other as cluster members. any idea? is there any priority when forming a cluster group??

            i just implemented the most basic Apache Web server and load-balance A and B using mod_jk
