connection validator warn message

[mazz]

I am seeing the following WARN message appear after I shutdown one side of my remoting app:

18:58:38,778 WARN [ConnectionValidator] ConnectionValidator could not successfully ping server (InvokerLocator [socket://127.0.0.1:1616
3]

Can someone tell me what this means? Is it a client-side message or a server-side message?

I'm sure I'm not cleaning up properly, but I don't know if I'm not cleaning up the server-side pieces or the client-side pieces correctly.

The ConnectionValidator is used by either the detector to validate that a server has gone down (by sending it an explicit ping invocation) or if have connection detection turned on within the client (by registering a listener to be notified if specific server has gone down while client has been idle).

You are probably seeing this due to detector seeing that server has been shut down. Maybe better to put this logging at DEBUG instead of WARN?

Yeah, I don't think this is a condition that always warrants being logged at the WARN level. The detector is supposed to see servers come up and down - it should not spit out a WARN message just because it sees a server go down. In my case, I explicitly shut down my server and was expecting my detector to see it go down. Seeing a WARN message made me think that something "bad" happened, when it really didn't.
