[mod_cluster-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (MODCLUSTER-295) default suggested port for ServerAdvertise needs to be changed to 7777 or some other unprotected port for Chrome support

Simeon Pinder created MODCLUSTER-295: ---------------------------------------- Summary: default suggested port for ServerAdvertise needs to be changed to 7777 or some other unprotected port for Chrome support Key: MODCLUSTER-295 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/MODCLUSTER-295 Project: mod_cluster Issue Type: Enhancement Affects Versions: 1.2.0.Final Environment: Default Httpd server provided for Linux in 1.2.0.Final release but this would affect all platforms. Reporter: Simeon Pinder Assignee: Jean-Frederic Clere Priority: Minor If you setup mod_cluster and use the default configuration/ports used in httpd.conf of 6666 in your initial modcluster configuration, when attempting to browse http://(server ip):6666/mod_cluster_manager from a Chrome browser you get "The webpage is not available". Initially this feels like a 'File Not Found' exception indicating that the mod_cluster module may not actually be setup correctly. On closer investigation you'll see that the actual error is: Error 312 (net::ERR_UNSAFE_PORT): Unknown error. There's a workaround is to change the port to another port not marked as 'secured' or do what is described here but this is a hurdle to new users trying to test out their mod_cluster integration with Chrome: http://superuser.com/questions/188006/how-to-fix-err-unsafe-port-error-on... Firefox loads the same page fine. Either way if it complicates modcluster setup and testing and we can get around it by suggesting a different port(ex. 7777) I think this is preferable. If not we should at a minimum include this as a note in the installation and trouble shooting guide. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
