[javagroups-users] setState

[Chris B. <bow...@ho...>]

Hi All,

I've still not succeeded in getting a stable group membership using 
either views or getState/setState.

I'm now testing out v2.6.4 as suggested previously by Bela. I have set 
up my protocol based on udp.xml (not too sure if there is a better one 
for my requirements out there?). However, I do not receive the setState 
method despite setting option Channel.GET_STATE on my JChannel. GetState 
is called and then the code waits 20 seconds for setState to be called. 
This used to work in v2.2.9 (Well at least the first time the JVM 
started up, after that it doesn't always work) udp.xml has the 
pbcast.STATE_TRANSFER protocol. Any ideas why this doesn't work?

One other thing I should mention about my environment. I use a mcast 
address and port shared by other groups. So I get a lot of log entries 
about discarded messages from other groups. Could this be responsible 
for some of my issues?

Thanks,

Chris
