If response unmarshalling fails, RequestCorrelator passes garbage as the response --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JGRP-354 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JGRP-354 Project: JGroups Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 2.4 Reporter: Brian Stansberry Assigned To: Brian Stansberry Fix For: 2.5 RspCollector coll=findEntry(hdr.id); if(coll != null) { Address sender=msg.getSrc(); Object retval=null; byte[] buf=msg.getBuffer(); try { retval=marshaller != null? marshaller.objectFromByteBuffer(buf) : Util.objectFromByteBuffer(buf); } catch(Exception e) { log.error("failed unmarshalling buffer into return value", e); try { retval=marshaller != null? marshaller.objectToByteBuffer(e) : Util.objectToByteBuffer(e); } catch(Exception e1) { log.error("failed marshalling exception " + e1 + " into buffer", e1); } } coll.receiveResponse(retval, sender); } The outer catch block should just be catch (Exception e) { log.error("failed unmarshalling buffer into return value", e); retval = e; } Looks like the bit about marshalling the exception came from handleRequest(), where it's needed. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
