Stefano Nichele commented on MODCLUSTER-278:
--------------------------------------------

I agree with you. My suggestion was the quickest workaround i found :-).

If you are able to give me some suggestion to put in place a new connector, i will try to do that....

>             Project: mod_cluster
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 1.1.3.Final
>         Environment: Tomcat 6.0.13 + jdk 1.6
>            Reporter: Stefano Nichele

> If in the server.xml file the "address" property is not specified, mod-cluster calls 
> IntrospectionUtils.setProperty(this.connector.getProtocolHandler(), "address", address.getHostAddress());
> in order to set the address automatically.
> This calls doesn't work with tomcat <= 6.0.14 (CatalinaConnector.setAddress throws a NoSuchMethodError) since the signature of IntrospectionUtils.setProperty has been changed in tomcat 6.0.15.
> As a fix, I would like to suggest this small changes in CatalinaConnector.setAddress:
>  
> try {
>     IntrospectionUtils.setProperty(this.connector.getProtocolHandler(), "address", address.getHostAddress());
> } catch (NoSuchMethodError err) {
>     // this works on Tomcat <= 6.0.14
>     this.connector.getProtocolHandler().setAttribute("address", address.getHostAddress());
> }
> instead of just:
>  
> IntrospectionUtils.setProperty(this.connector.getProtocolHandler(), "address", address.getHostAddress());
