[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Created: (JBAS-6118) EJB3 InvokerLocator server socket binds only to 127.0.0.1 when the hostname is listed in /etc/host as 127.0.0.1

[Alejandro Isacovich (JIRA)]

EJB3 InvokerLocator server socket binds only to 127.0.0.1 when the hostname is listed in /etc/host as 127.0.0.1
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBAS-6118
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBAS-6118
             Project: JBoss Application Server
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
          Components: EJB3
    Affects Versions: JBossAS-4.2.2.GA
         Environment: RedHat Linux 
2.6.9-42.ELsmp Kernel
            Reporter: Alejandro Isacovich
            Assignee: Carlo de Wolf


If the host name is listed in an entry of the /etc/hosts file as 127.0.0.1. For example as follows (where vm9-srv01 is the hostname):

127.0.0.1       localhost.localdomain localhost  vm9-srv01

Then the EJB3 InvokerLocator server socket binds only to 127.0.0.0 regardless of what the jboss.bind.address is.

That means clients from other machines will not be able to make EJB3 calls to the server.

This issue was also discussed here for JBoss 4.2.1.GA: http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4098486#4098486
