I want to set up a standalone Wildfly cluster with 2 nodes. For this purpose I set up 2 fedora22 virtual machines. On both nodes I installed Wildfly 9.0.0.Final and run it with standalone-ha.xml configuration file. On first node I also installed httpd 2.4 and mod_cluster 1.3.1. Current setting are listed below. On both machines I disabled firewall and SELinux.

Node1 configuration (192.168.2.240)

I start httpd with systemctl start httpd and then i run Wildfly with ./standalone.sh -c standalone-ha.xml. Servers starts without an error and deploy application. I can see my application on both nodes on localhost:8080

On 192.168.2.240:6666/mod_cluster_manager i can see following screen:

screenshot

When i want to get my app in browser on address http://192.168.2.240/ but i get 503 Service Unavailable when i restart httpd and page 404 - Not found few seconds letter. On http://192.168.2.240:6666/ i get fedora test page. Error log of httpd dont show any error only debug messages.

I think i have problem in configuration where my app gets deployed.

Does it change anything if you deploy your app so as it has context /cloudflow (without vhost config) instead of / ? It might be a bug in mc. Gonna try to reproduce. – Michal Karm Babacek
no nothing helped so i changed httpd to 2.2. and mod_cluster to 1.2.6 and it works fine. I think there is bug in newest modcluster or httpd. Httpd tries to ping port 27233 which is not even open – Domen Petrič
Thanks Domen for digging into it. I'll dissect the latest mod_cluster and get back to you. – Michal Karm Babacek
I managed to make it work today. Problem was on command: ServerAdvertise On I changed it to: ServerAdvertise On IP:port after that it worked – Domen Petrič

Problem was on command: ServerAdvertise On I changed it to: ServerAdvertise On IP:6666

I also delelted whole virtual Host section for port 80 in httpd.conf After that it worked
