Instance in cluster will not restart

cf11 w/update 6 cluster on windows server 2012 r2.  secure profile.  cluster includes 2 instances, 1 on remote vm, , 1 "home" instance (on same vm iis website , cfusion instance in create cluster), , think set more or less in standard way.  works fine after set up.  restarting remote instance works fine.  restarting "home" instance--even after no changes anything--results in instance hanging during startup , may not shut down except via task manager.  cluster experts out there greatly appreciated.  i'm happy provide additional setup or diagnostic info.

 

setup details

nothing unusual configuration, except maybe home directory website in alternate directory per lockdown recommendations.  add maxthreads , connectiontimeout attributes connector node ajp/1.3 in server.xml.  when registering remote instance specify https.  create cluster use sticky sessions , no session replication.  restart both after creating cluster.  run connector in cfusion\runtime\bin folder , select advanced options set connection pool timeout 60 seconds.  works fine after that, responses both instances when requesting website 2 different browsers, expected.  if restart remote instance, no problems.

 

details restarting "home" instance

shutdown results in few errors instance shuts down , can attempt restart.  (two types of errors: many thrown org.apache.catalina.loader.webappclassloader, checkthreadlocalmapforleaks, dates , creating threadlocal key of type coldfusion.util.dateutils, failed remove when web application stopped.  remote instance did when shutting down started ok.  home instance threw error illegal access: web application instance has been stopped already.  not load java.util.concurrent.scheduledfuture.  stops anyway.)

 

when attempt restart, instance hangs after logged coldfusion-error.log:

nothing gets logged cf logs, isapi_redirect.log, or windows event logs during startup.

 

after cannot browse cfusion instance manager nor can shut down using command line.  have kill process in task manager.

 

thanks in advance can provide!

hi chris,

 

i have not used cfusion instance part of cf cluster. perhaps try on home iis server , remote cf instance leave cfusion out of configured instances , cluster.

 

i find leaving cfusion creating instances, joining instances make cluster , managing webserver connector wsconfig tends work well.

 

hth, carl.
