JBoss 5.1.0.GA. Why difference between -b and -Djboss.bind.a

kosulin May 28, 2009 10:18 AM

It looks like it is not possible to replace -b 0.0.0.0 with set of system properties passed to jvm with as -D parameters.
I prepare migration to JBoss 5.1.0.GA from JBoss 4.2.3, and while playing with run.conf.bat, found that -b command line option can not be mimicked with java system properties.
Here is what happens.
I do not set bind_addr in XML files.
When I use -b 0.0.0.0, I see what is actually expected (services listen on all interfaces, JGroups node name is properly assigned:
...
GMS: address is 147.249.124.180:3847 (cluster=Partition112)
...
18:00:17,046 INFO [Http11Protocol] Initializing Coyote HTTP/1.1 on http-0.0.0.0-8080
...

But when I use -Djboss.bind.address=0.0.0.0, JGroups node name is not assigned properly. I am getting:
...
GMS: address is 0.0.0.0:4011 (cluster=Partition112)
...
10:01:29,377 INFO [Http11Protocol] Initializing Coyote HTTP/1.1 on http-0.0.0.0-8080
...

The same happens when I use -Djboss.bind.address=0.0.0.0 -Dbind.address=0.0.0.0

Isn't JGroups supposed to use only -Djgroups.bind_address? Because it looks like the only way to make clustering work without XML is to use -b option.
Is this behavior expected?

Use -Djboss.bind.address=0.0.0.0 -Djgroups.bind_addr=0.0.0.0

Hmm, I just noticed that last bit was running in an old pre-5.1.0.CR1 build. I'll try again.

Very strange. What I'm seeing is it works as expected when I set the properties on the command line, but when I edit run.conf.bat to include them in JAVA_OPTS, I get the behavior you reported.

Ah! I get it. The code that fixes the jgroups.bind_addr property if it's 0.0.0.0 is part of the processing of arguments passed to org.jboss.Main. But when you set it via JAVA_OPTS, that's passed to java directly, not as an argument passed to Main.

https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBAS-7119

Thanks for the report.
