[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Resolved: (JGRP-824) PING.init() hard codes the GossipRouter connection timout to 1000 (1 second)

PING.init() hard codes the GossipRouter connection timout to 1000 (1 second) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JGRP-824 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JGRP-824 Project: JGroups Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 2.6.3 Environment: JDK 1.5.4_15, x86 Linux, 2.6.18 kernel, JGroups 2.6.3 Reporter: Mitch Christensen Assignee: Vladimir Blagojevic Priority: Minor Fix For: 2.7 We have noticed several spurious ERRORs reported in our logs generated by the GossipClient attempting to refresh its registration with the GossipRouter. The ERRORs typically occur on remote nodes (over a WAN) indicating that 1 second in not always enough time (ERRORs are often spaced apart by tens of minutes and hours). It turns out that the GossipClient class defines a socket_conn_timeout attribute to determine how long to wait for a socket timout, but PING.init(), which creates the GossipClient hard codes the value to 1000. The PING class should support a socket_conn_timeout attribute that is used to construct the GossipClient.
