Really strange cluster isolation problem....

We are still using Coherence 3.6.0 and is experiencing a really strange problem with two test clusters:
Cluster 1 uses wka a.b.c.d:9000 and cluster name "cluster1"
Cluster 2 uses wka e.f.g.h:9000 and cluster name "cluster2"
I can using JMX and log files see that both clusters have started successfully with node 1 (the single wka) using port 9000.
A client program first connects successfully to cluster 1 (using cluster 1 wka and cluster name as above). After the program terminate the same client program is run again this time versus cluster 2 (using cluster 2 wka and cluster name as above) but this time the connection is refused and to our total surprise the error message indicates that the Cluster 1 wka node a.b.c.d:9000 has refused connection and that the cluster name should be "Cluster 1"!!!!!!! We have checked and re-checked that the right combination of wka and cluster name (for cluster 2) is specified on the command line the second time....
Short of a DNS configuration problem (we are in fact using server names rather than physical IPs in the command line overrides) that would resolve the two wka node names to the same physical IP I cant see any solution (not involving woodo, alien intervention and/or the Bermuda triangle) to this behaviour. I actually tried pinging the two host names and could see that they indeed resolved to different IPs to eliminate this, unlikely but possible, problem...
It is my understanding that when specifying a unique wka for two clusters there is no need to set up unique multicast addresses / ports (since multicast is not at all used in this case) - can somebody confirm that this is indeed true or if this could have anything to do with our problem?!
Any suggestions or ideas (in addition to hiring a shaman to exorcise our servers :-)) are warmly appreciated...

After studying the problem more in detail I have come to the conclusion that this indeed seem to be a bug in Coherence 3.6.0. It does however not occur with 3.6.1 or 3.7.0 but if the problem is unknown I would have checked it out...
The problem is really easy to reproduce. Create two clusters (can be single storage node, local or remote does not matter) each with a unique WKA port (of course).
Execute a simple client program (non storage enabled) first against the one cluster then against the other. The program I used just looked up a cache ("near-test") and printed its size (in this case zero since I never loaded anything into the cluster).
You don't need to enable pof or anything specia. The cache-config iin the coherence.jar works fine. I have tested this both on distributed clusters on Linux and locally on a single Windows box.
You will notice that the program works against the first cluster but fails when run against the second.

  • Really Strange Internet COnnectivity Problem

    I have a wireless-G 2.4Ghz Broadband Router (Model No. WRT54G) with three computers (all wireless) and two printers (both wired) hooked up to it, but right now only one computer is able to recieve any internet connectivity whatsoever.
    I've tried repairing the connection, turning off both the modem and the router and leaving them off for 15 minutes, and still I have had no luck.
    Any suggestions?

    one way to check if you have internet connection is to go to the command prompt and type in >ping yahoo.com if you get 4 replies, then you have the connection. open your internet explorer and click on tools. on the general tab, click delete files and delete also cookies. try to use default security and make sure on the connections tab, the "never dial a connection" radio button is selected. click on the LAN connections sub-tab and uncheck all the boxes in there. try to open a website now using your internet explorer.

  • Oracle 9.2: Really strange problem so Please Help!

    Hi All,
    I am having a really strange problem and I don't know why it is so. I have a simple sproc (for testing) that updates one column in a table and the where clause uses two in params and the set clause uses a local variable. I stepped through it in JDeveloper and saw the execute of the update and commit statements and in params' values and the local variable's value, but the row will not be updated! If I changed the where clause to use literal values (303 and '1045225') and the set clause to use 3, then it works. If params and a variable are used for these three values, the row does not get updated! And when I added the dbms_output.put_line to print out the param's value and the variable value, they are all there! Here is the code:
    create or replace procedure sprocTestUpdate (
         Action          in varchar2 := 'FETCH',     
         p_QueueID          in number,
         StatusDesc     in varchar2 ,
         p_PK          in varchar2
    as
         --- local varirables
         StatusID     pls_integer;
         MessageTypeID     pls_integer;
         EditActionID     pls_integer;
         v_QueueID     pls_integer := 0;
         --- error constants
         Source constant     varchar2(20) := 'RCSO';
         Sproc constant varchar2(50) := 'spCriMNetQueuePublish';
         --- status constants
         StatusUnprocessed constant varchar2(20) := 'UNPROCESSED';
         StatusProcessing constant varchar2(20) := 'PROCESSING';
         StatusProcessed constant varchar2(20) := 'PROCESSED';
         StatusError constant varchar2(20) := 'ERROR';
         v_errorMessage     varchar2(4000);
    begin
         begin
              StatusID := fnc_getQueueStatusID (StatusDesc);
         exception
              when others then
                   null;
         end;     
         ---set transaction isolation level serializable;
         if Action = 'STATUSUPDATE' then          
              update QueuePublish
              set StatusID = StatusID,
                   attemptcount = attemptcount + 1
         where queueid = p_QueueID and PK = p_PK;          
              commit;
              dbms_output.put_line(to_char(StatusID) || ' For ' || to_char(QueueID));
         end if;
    exception
         when others then
              rollback;
    end sprocTestUpdate;
    and here is the test script in SQL*Plus:
    declare
         action     varchar2(30);
         QueueID number;
         StatusDesc varchar2(30);
         PK varchar2(30);

         StatusDesc := 'PROCESSED';
         PK := '1045225';
         sprocTestUpdate(action, QueueID, StatusDesc, PK);
    end;
    thanks.
    ben

    Ghulam, this is what I was talking about:
    <<
    StatusID := 3;
    if Action = 'STATUSUPDATE' then
    update QueuePublish
    set StatusID = StatusID,
    attemptcount = attemptcount + 1
    where queueid = 303 and PK = '1045225';
    commit;
    dbms_output.put_line(to_char(StatusID) || ' For ' || to_char(QueueID));
    end if;
    and it won't update! but if I say set StatudID = 3 it will work!
    >>
    might be better to do :
    L_STATUSID := 3 ;
    ste STATUS_ID = :L_STATUSID
    ...otherwise you are just replacing STATUSID by itself,
    poor RDBMS-engine doesn't know what StatusId you are talking about

  • I just jazzed up my 2 Ghz iMac with 10.6.8, and 4 gigs of memory. I'm VERY happy with the results (fast!), but now I have a thin yellow line way over on the right side of the screen, which goes from top to bottom. This is really strange! Any input?

    I'm VERY happy with the results (fast!). However, the really strange thing is this - there is now a thin yellow line, way over on the right side of the screen, which goes from top to bottom, and stays there no matter where I go or what I do. I've never seen anything like this! It was not there before I did the upgrades. Anyone out there ever heard of such a preposterous thing ~ or have any ideas on how to get rid of it?

    It's going to mean a lot of reading but you should study the 'More like this' legend to your post's immediate right.  >>>>>>>>   plus some of the links within each.
    The problem is well explored with much guidance on what to do and where to go.

  • Very strange Access / JDBC problems

    Hi there,
    I am running a simple jdbc program which uses MS Access 2000.
    I am getting this really strange problem. My program does not update the table and throws no exception - when I run the same program through a remote debugger - it does update the table.
    Is there any known JDBC / Access problems?
    Many Thanks

    There's no such thing as 91% Java Developer - you're either certified or you're not. Sounds like you're 0%.
    If you're really that knowledgable about Java, go back and re-read your question. Ask yourself: "Could the problem be me? Is there anything I'm doing wrong with JDBC that could have caused this?" I think it's likely. I'm telling you that I can insert, delete, and update with Access via the JDBC-ODBC bridge and make them stick. If you can't, I'd say you've done something wrong.
    Access 2000, Win 2000/XP Professional, JDK 1.4.1 are what I'm using. If those are the versions you've got, then there's no bug. It's you.
    JDBC-ODBC bridge isn't a M$ product, either. You can find bugs on it in the database.
    I don't see how anybody here has been that abusive of you. (I've read far worse.) It sounds like your ego would prefer that the problem lie elsewhere than inside your code.
    Do you want to make your code work or not? If so, stop calling us idiots and post something so we can take a look.
    I'd get a new ID. If you don't want to be treated as a newbie, don't use a newbie name. - MOD

  • LaserJet 1320 not being recognized, really strange

    Hello all,
    I'm having a really strange problem that I think is mostly my fault. I just recieved a LaserJet 1320, and when I first hooked it up everything worked fine.
    However, I couldn't figure out how to do duplex printing, so I installed HP's Toolbox software. A big mistake, and I ended up having to manually delete all of the file it put in /Library.
    Anyhow, now my Mac won't recognize the printer at all. Print Setup Utilities shows nothing. I've reinstalled the HP PPDs from my Tiger CD, still nothing.
    The Printer works (Tested on an old Linux Box) and the USB ports on my Mac work, but still I can't get the printer to be recognized.
    *pulls out hair*
    Any help would be welcomed.
    Thanks,

    Powerbook G4 1.5 GHz   Mac OS X (10.4.4)  

    I had the same problem with a friends computer.
    She had put the CD in also.
    I nearly lost the will to live trying to fix it so I plugged it into my powerbook to see if the printer was OK. I could print perfectly.
    I then copied the printer from username/Library/Printers/ folder and then dropped in into her printers folder. It worked brilliantly. All you need is another mac that has never been near an HP install CD.

  • Ethernet Port is acting really strange?

    So I am having the hardest time coming up with a solution to a really strange problem I'm having.
    Day One: My ethernet port just stopped noticing when it was connected to a internet connection. I did a restart, PRAM reset, anything that I could think of. Nothing worked. I made an appointment to the Genius Bar and the same problem was happening there.
    So they booted up a new image of OSX on a thumb drive and ethernet port was working! So the Genius bar guy removed all my preferences/network .plist files from MY OSX and everything was back to normal.
    So we know this isn't a hardware issue.
    Next day: No more ethernet, Again...
    I did the same proceedure that the Genius bar did. No result. WHAT THE DUCE? I still didn't have an ethernet port.
    I then reinstalled OSX, to get a clean state. Ethernet is back and working normally. All good.
    Next day: Ethernet port "works" but is selective on which one it wants to use.
    I work in two different offices.
    At the first office. The port next to my desk doesn't work when I connect. Another person can plug in (with same cord or different chord and get internet access) no issues. I can go two feet over and plug in there and the ethernet port recognizes it is plugged in and I revieve internet.
    At the second office, the cubicle I reside in has 4 ethernet ports. All four work for other people. Only 2 work for me.
    WHAT THE DUCE is going on? Can anyone help me with this?

    Along the same vein, after resetting the PRAM and SMC, try turning all security off: no firewall, enable all apps and turn FileVault off if in use. Not advocating a "go stroll naked in the rough side of town", but rather to try and confirn that those components have no bearing on the issue. Do enable all you use immediately after.

  • IMac i7 - Strange CPU-fan problem!

    Hi,
    my name is Chris and I'm living in Germany. Sorry for my pigeon english, I'm not very good in languages... Nevertheless I will try to describe my problem.
    I have received my iMac last saturday. It's an i7 with 2TB hard drive. On sunday suddenly the CPU-fan went nuts, spinning with about 3500 rpm. At that time there was no heavy CPU load at all.
    Neither P-RAM- nor SMC-resets fixed the problem, the CPU-fan was running at full speed all the time. On monday morning (the i7 was switched during the night), the problem was still persisting. Hence, I contacted Apple and they promised to send me a replacement for the i7 in about three weeks.
    Later on this monday, I received a package with additional 4GB of memory I had ordered for the iMac. Although the iMac was making noise comparable to a 747, I decided to build in the additional 4GB of RAM, just to play a bit around with an "8GB machine". The assembly of the additional memory was pretty easy, basically everything was working fine (memory wise). But the CPU-fan was still continuously at around 3500 rpm.
    Afterwards, I decided to clean up the computer a bit by using the "automatic" script within "Onyx". I started the procedure and left the room.
    When I came back about 1 hour later, there was total silence in the room. In first instance I wasn't surprised very much, because the iMac was obviously in the sleep mode. But I was really surprised when I woke it up again: The CPU- fan was back to normal, spinning with 940rpm. Almost completely silent.
    Any ideas what happened? Can there be a connection between the "fan-went-nuts-issue" and the Onyx scripts?
    What shall I do? My iMac is behaving now, but I have already ordered replacement...
    Best wishes,
    Chris

    Yes, I have seen this thread, thank you.
    When the CPU-fan started to spin at 3800, one of the first thing I tried was putting the iMac into the sleep mode. After I had done so, I woke it up back again almost immediately (about 1 minute later) by pressing the space bar. But for some reason, the iMac woke (with normal fan noise) and then immediately fall back into sleep (after being about 10 seconds awake). A "proper wake up" was not possible, since it was sort of an infinitely loop of waking up and falling asleep. A reboot via the power button was necessary, whereby the fan went back to 3800 rpm.
    And then I performed this Onyx-run (as mentioned in my first post), and afterwards the iMac went to sleep mode automatically. It stayed in the sleep mode for about an hour or so, and after my next wake up call it was cured.
    Really strange. Either it was cured by the maintenance-things Onyx did to the cache/system files, or by being in the sleep mode for about one hour. I also can't exclude influence of our Lord, since I was behaving in the last year...
    Somehow I have lost my trust in that machine. Even after the fan went back to normal behavior I am still not sure if I should cancel the replacement order... I am open for recommendations from your side.
    Best wishes,
    Chris

  • Strange page load problem

    Here is one for you. Recently a page I have been visiting often completely loads, then a moment later goes blank. Viewing the source code looks normal. I have deleted numerous files: Safari.plist, internetconfig.plist, cookies.plist, deleted the cache and icons. I just downloaded and reinstalled Safari and the problem still persists!
    The really strange thing is I can view any other page on the site normally. The problem page works in Firefox, Opera and IE5 (sort of). I have no problem with any other site or pages.
    FYI, the page is http://www.campusbooks.com
    What am I missing?
    Thanks,

    OSX 10.3.8
    Safari 1.2

    I would just really like to know why this problem exists
    Sorry, I wish I could give you an answer there but I can't.
    Maybe it's caused by bad cache files (have you tried erasing the cache/resetting Safari?) or some enhancer application you're using (Saft, PithHelment for example).
    One quick test you can do to help narrow down things is browse with Safari in another user account. This will help us to know whether your problem is local to your account or system wide. If you don't have another account you can use System Preferences -> Accounts -> [+] to create a test one (and [-] to remove it if needed)

  • Really strange musical fonts have appeared

    Just today I was using pages when i noticed these really strange musical fonts had appeared:
    There are alot more of these wierd fonts: these are just a few examples.
    i have this musical creation program on my computer called Sibelius First 6: I was wondering if that was the cause.I don't use it much and am on the trial version, so I could uninstall the program if it would fix this strange issue.
    Thanks

    cereskit,
    If you are really using 10.6.4, updating your OS may solve the problem.
    It would be best to download and install the 10.6.7 combo update and then run Software Update.

  • This is really strange...

    Hi, has anybody here ever encountered such problem?
    My code is like:
    String date = Util.Bytes2String(m_sDate);     
    if (date!="")
    try{
    String yy = date.substring(0, 4);      
    String mm = date.substring(4, 6);
    } catch (Exception e){}
    I have tested that the string date is empty(="") but the "try" statement is still executed, why? This is really strange to me.
    Thank you.

    Use
    if (!("".equals(date)))You only use == and != to
    1) compare primitives
    2) see if a reference is null
    3) see if two references refer to the same object
    Even if date contains the empty String, it doesn't necessarily (and in your code won't) refer to the same object as the one in the constant pool that holds your "" String object.

  • Very strange index.jsp problem (Apache2 + Jboss/Tomcat)

    I've been working on this for 6 hours until the current time of 4.30 am - any help is very much appreciated.
    I (thought) I had successfully integrated Jboss/Tomcat with apache 2 using mod_jk 1.2.8 - and added an alias for jmx-console. But I just can't make index.jsp serve when loading the default directory. I also tried with a fairly straightforward jsp site I have 'ConnectSite' (just a conference name).
    I have created deployment and alias called connect, results
    http://localhost:8080/ConnectSite [success]
    http://localhost/ConnectSite/index.jsp [success]
    http://localhost/ConnectSite/ [fail] - Apache treats it like any other directory.
    But what's really strange is if i take out mod_jk from apache and leave in DirectoryIndex index.jsp - then apache will serve the .jsp file unprocessed. All the static content is served by apache just fine.
    I am baffled. Should I just try proxy for the moment.
    Many Thanks,

  • I have a strange 3g data problem.

    I have a strange 3g data problem.  At home I have zero 3G connectivity even though all bars are showing and says "3G" and wifi is "Off" ... unless I am on the phone and then magically the 3G data connection works perfectly!!  Does anyone have any idea what is happening?  Also when I bring my phone to my dad's or my friends house the problem disappears!! Is this a hardware or a AT&T network problem? os is 4.3.3
    Also called ATT and they said there was no problem with the network and that it was a hardware issue.  Also restored the phone several times but the problem did not go away.

    OK, no trouble shooting. The first thing I'd attempt is restarting in Safe Mode. If you still don't have luck try doing both a SMC and PRAM reset, it wouldn't hurt to do the SMC reset a couple of times. If still no luck let us know.
    SMC RESET
    Shut down the computer.
    Unplug the computer's power cord and all peripherals.
    Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
    Release the power button.
    Attach the computers power cable.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer.
    PRAM RESET
    Shut down the computer.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.

  • Really strange network issue that is specific to OS X 10.6.8

    Really strange network issue that is specific to OS X 10.6.8 on both 2 iMacs and an older intel Mac Pro.
    Any system running 10.6.8 is achieving on average 15 –20 mb a sec transfer rates regardless of drive speeds, cables, network activity etc.. I've spent some time removing any cable , drive speed, router issues to the point where one machine dual boots into both 10.6.8 and 10.6.5
    The 10.6.5 system has network speeds of 60mb – 80mb p/sec transfer rates.
    Our older 10.5.8 PPC mac gets 80mb and my 2011 Macbook Pro 10.7.2 hits 60mb – 80mb consistently as well.
    Any idea what the cause is?
    Cheers

    Since your other Mac running 10.5.8 is not affected, you know that your AirPort router is functioning correctly.
    What changed on your Mac? This seems like a post for either the Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard support area, or the support area for your model of Mac.
    We normally handle questions about the AirPort Express, AirPort Extreme or Time Capsule in this area, but you can certainly wait to see if you receive a response here.
