Has anyone tested 1.21 with a carp cluster?

eri-- · Aug 11, 2008, 4:39 PM

Heiko, is the cluster trying to sync through the WAN interface?

heiko · Aug 11, 2008, 6:40 PM

Yes, the configuration is the same as 1.2 (Wan Carp, lan Carp), but with 1.21 it didn´t run. The same test scenario, but if all people says, it runs, i will test it again..,thanks ermal

Please retry with a recent snapshot and see if the problem goes away.

Sync doesn't work across https.

See http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,11019.0.html

ok i went over to http and got this

php: : New alert found: A communications error occured while attempting XMLRPC sync with username admin http://10.1.0.2:80.

Carp works with https in 1.2 as it should, 1.21 have a few bugs, at the moment with ipsec and carp clustering, wait and see…

"UnderCover",

Start a shell (via console or ssh) and try

fetch http://10.1.0.2:80/

If that doesn't work (with the username and password of the system that's trying to sync – remember, they have to be the same on both boxes), then figure out to fix that first.

Juste a feedback to say that my 1.21 cluster is still running fine without any issue regarding CARP and/or synchronization.

;D

Do you use HTTP or HTTPS for the web interface?

We confirmed that https synchronisation atleast is not succeeding.

It should be fixed in a upcoming snapshot.

The carp cluster should otherwise function normally. It does so in my production setup at work.
We are still investigating a few other issues here.

Great – will you post a note here when the fix is in a snapshot?

I can confirm that CARP (and syncing over http) is working.

can't wait ;D

Juve · Sep 3, 2008, 5:39 PM

Right, we use HTTP since the snapshot we use has problem with HTTPS. ;)

databeestje · Sep 6, 2008, 8:58 PM

Carp syncing works normally again.

Please confirm

Doublecheck usernames and check that you have a firewall rule allowing access to the remote webui

UnderCover · Sep 8, 2008, 9:08 PM
