[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Updated: (JGRP-818) JChannelFactory fails to parse configuration and gives a contradictory error message

JChannelFactory fails to parse configuration and gives a contradictory error message ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key: JGRP-818 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JGRP-818 Project: JGroups Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 2.6.3 Reporter: David Green Assignee: Vladimir Blagojevic Priority: Minor Fix For: 2.7 Attachments: jgroups.xml, tcp-nio.xml JConfigurationFactory gives the following error message when parsing the attached configuration file: {noformat} invalid XML configuration: XML protocol stack configuration does not start with a '<config>' element; maybe the XML configuration needs to be converted to the new format ? use 'java org.jgroups.conf.XmlConfigurator <old XML file> -new_format' to do so {noformat} The attached file does indeed start with a 'config' element. Looking at the code, JConfigurationFactory is actually looking for a 'protocol_stacks' root element. the error message in JConfigurationFactory should be fixed. Furthermore, the -new_format argument doesn't appear to be accepted by XmlConfigurator. XmlConfigurator also seems to like the XML file if it starts with <config>. So which is the right format? All of the examples provided with the distribution start with <config>.
