I am not really testing clustering as I only have a single instance of Openfire 3.4.0, but I enabled it anyway just to see. I have noticed that when I try to add uses to a shared group, I get a message saying that the user(s) are not registered. When I disable clustering, I can add users as normal.
Has anyone noticed this, or is this normal behaviour and I am missing something?
this looks like a bug, I also get this error running a cluster. Creating (empty) groups works fine. Adding users to a group fails with “User(s) not added successfully. foobar is not a registered user.”
Could you enable the debug log and tell me the exception you see when adding a new group member? BTW, I just changed the code to print a warn rather than a debug.
Are you seeing other problems with shared groups or is it just adding new users that is not working for you?
I just checked in a fix for this problem. Update your copy from SVN and let me know if you are still seeing some problems with groups or shared groups.
I prefer a small jar or zip file to download which replaces an existing file, it’s more easy for me and probably also for other users.
I could just confirm this error and did not look at shared groups so far, so it seems that the QA document could be extended by a few tests regarding shared groups.
