Hi, I was trying to configure clustering as per the instructions mentioned here - https://gluu.org/docs/ce/3.1.1/installation-guide/cluster/#introduction In the last step where it is mentioned ``` Restart Identity and oxAuth on all servers, then restart all your Gluu servers ``` i'm getting exception while restarting identity service ``` service identity start ``` tail -f /opt/gluu/jetty/identity/logs/2017_10_26.stderrout.log ``` org.gluu.site.ldap.persistence.exception.MappingException: Failed to convert json value '{"cacheProviderType": "REDIS", "memcachedConfiguration": {"servers":"localhost:11211", "maxOperationQueueLength":100000, "bufferSize":32768, "defaultPutExpiration":60, "connectionFactoryType": "DEFAULT"}, "inMemoryConfiguration": {"defaultPutExpiration":60}, "redisConfiguration":{"servers":"localhost:6379","dev-gluu-nginx.internal.com:6379", "defaultPutExpiration": 60}}' to object at org.gluu.site.ldap.persistence.AbstractEntryManager.convertStringToJson(AbstractEntryManager.java:1115) at org.gluu.site.ldap.persistence.AbstractEntryManager.setPropertyValue(AbstractEntryManager.java:1100) at org.gluu.site.ldap.persistence.AbstractEntryManager.createEntities(AbstractEntryManager.java:655) at org.gluu.site.ldap.persistence.AbstractEntryManager.createEntities(AbstractEntryManager.java:588) at org.gluu.site.ldap.persistence.AbstractEntryManager.find(AbstractEntryManager.java:447) ``` I'm getting the same error in all gluu nodes. What other log files should I look into to dig in further. Appreciate any guidance towards the possible cause behind this. Thanks

>> redisConfiguration":{"servers":"localhost:6379","dev-gluu-nginx.internal.com:6379" This is the problem; you have two servers included in redisConfiguration. Remove that localhost one and let's see how that goes.

Thanks Mohib. I'm still getting the same exception. Here's is my vi /etc/redis/redis.conf snippet. ``` ################################## NETWORK ##################################### # By default, if no "bind" configuration directive is specified, Redis listens # for connections from all the network interfaces available on the server. # It is possible to listen to just one or multiple selected interfaces using # the "bind" configuration directive, followed by one or more IP addresses. # # Examples: # # bind 192.168.1.100 10.0.0.1 # bind 127.0.0.1 ::1 bind dev-gluu-nginx.internal.com # # ~~~ WARNING ~~~ If the computer running Redis is directly exposed to the # internet, binding to all the interfaces is dangerous and will expose the # instance to everybody on the internet. So by default we uncomment the # following bind directive, that will force Redis to listen only into # the IPv4 lookback interface address (this means Redis will be able to # accept connections only from clients running into the same computer it # is running). # # IF YOU ARE SURE YOU WANT YOUR INSTANCE TO LISTEN TO ALL THE INTERFACES # JUST COMMENT THE FOLLOWING LINE. # ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #bind 127.0.0.1 ``` Exception ``` org.gluu.site.ldap.persistence.exception.MappingException: Failed to convert json value '{"cacheProviderType": "REDIS", "memcachedConfiguration": {"servers":"localhost:11211", "maxOperationQueueLength":100000, "bufferSize":32768, "defaultPutExpiration":60, "connectionFactoryType": "DEFAULT"}, "inMemoryConfiguration": {"defaultPutExpiration":60}, "redisConfiguration":{"servers":"localhost:6379","dev-gluu-nginx.internal.com:6379", "defaultPutExpiration": 60}}' to object at org.gluu.site.ldap.persistence.AbstractEntryManager.convertStringToJson(AbstractEntryManager.java:1115) ``` Another doubt - Do i have to install Redis inside gluu chroot or outside ? redis-server --version Redis server v=3.9.103 sha=00000000:0 malloc=jemalloc-4.0.3 bits=64 build=8c1b008703dce324 Currently its installed outside. Appreciate and many thanks for your guidance.

Hi Mohib, I updated the bind value with IP address but still getting the same error. ``` bind 172.16.12.35 ``` I followed the steps as documented here: https://gluu.org/docs/ce/3.1.1/installation-guide/cluster/#6-install-and-configure-redis ``` The standard redis-server's configuration file binds to 127.0.0.1. We need to comment out this entry so that it listens to external requests. ``` I even tried that. But still getting the same exception. Appreciate any guidance you can provide to resolve this.

Hi Mohib, We can see from the exception trace that json which is been parsed is not valid. ``` { "cacheProviderType": "REDIS", "memcachedConfiguration": { "servers": "localhost:11211", "maxOperationQueueLength": 100000, "bufferSize": 32768, "defaultPutExpiration": 60, "connectionFactoryType": "DEFAULT" }, "inMemoryConfiguration": { "defaultPutExpiration": 60 }, "redisConfiguration": { > "servers": "localhost:6379","dev-gluu-nginx.internal:6379", "defaultPutExpiration": 60 } } ``` I was looking in to the gluu source code on github : https://github.com/GluuFederation/oxCore/blob/master/oxService/src/main/java/org/xdi/service/cache/RedisConfiguration.java I'm wondering how the "servers" property is been set with a comma separated value.This looks wired to me. I can see values to be something like the test case here: ``` @BeforeClass public void beforeClass() { RedisConfiguration config = new RedisConfiguration(); // config.setServers("localhost:7000,localhost:7001,localhost:7002,localhost:7003,localhost:7004,localhost:7005"); config.setServers("c4.gluu.org:22121"); standaloneProvider = new RedisStandaloneProvider(config); clusterProvider = new RedisClusterProvider(config); shardedProvider = new RedisShardedProvider(config); } ``` Is this a bug in the system and my redis configuration is still off?
