---------------------------------
Summary: UNICAST3 drops all messages until it receives the first one
Key: JGRP-2131
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JGRP-2131
Project: JGroups
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 3.6.10
Reporter: Dennis Reed
Assignee: Bela Ban
UNICAST3.getReceiverEntry returns null if it hasn't seen the first message yet.
This causes UNICAST3.handleDataReceived to drop the message.
When you add *ENCRYPT, this causes a major deadlock. *ENCRYPT will queue most messages
until it gets the encryption key, which can often include the first message (so UNICAST3
won't see it yet). Then when an important message such as JOIN_RSP comes through,
UNICAST3 drops it. Since UNICAST3 never lets any messages through in this case, the
encryption key will never get set so that *ENCRYPT can pass the first message up and free
the deadlock.
