Zookeeper: Connection request from old client will be dropped if server is in r-o mode

storm version: 0.82

zookeeper version: 3.4.5.

We have a small storm cluster (1 nimbus and 3 supervisors), so using just 1 zookeeper instance that's co-located with storm nimbus.

Infrequently we start getting the following errors in the zookeeper logs and our storm cluster comes to a standstill.

2014-04-05 13:27:32,885 [myid:] - INFO  [NIOServerCxn.Factory:0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0:2181:NIOServerCnxnFact

95] - Established session 0x1452dd02834002e with negotiated timeout 40000 for client /10.0.1.183:561

On the storm end we start seeing the following in supervisor and worker logs:

2014-04-05 11:37:29 ConnectionStateManager [WARN] There are no ConnectionStateListeners registered.
2014-04-05 11:37:29 cluster [WARN] Received event :disconnected::none: with disconnected Zookeeper.

Do we need to downgrade zookeeper to 3.3.3 or is there a known issue/config that we're missing?

A workaround for this situation is to clear storm's data directory (configured in strom.yaml==>storm.local.dir), then restart the supervisor. I did that in my test environment by clear storm's data directory and restart the nimbus and supervisor. I think it's caused by a previous crash of the storm cluster, and the supervisor can not recovery from such a spot.

We also experienced several issues with Storm 0.9 and Zookeeper 3.4.X, even though not exactly the one you describe.

Storm mailing list are also reporting such incompatibility issues:

https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#search/label%3Astorm+zookeeper+3.4/144313a45ba069b5 https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#search/label%3Astorm+zookeeper+3.4/1447d95d10ce7582

This later one is pointing us to this Storm pull request, which should hopefully let us use ZK 3.4.X with future versions of Storm when it will be released:

https://github.com/apache/incubator-storm/pull/29

Until then, I would recommend downgrading ZK to 3.3.6 (you may install a specific separate instance of ZK for Storm if you absolutely need ZK 3.4.X for another system). You could also clone the Storm code and merge that pull request locally or compile the latest version of the trunk, but that's a bit adventurous and more tiresome than just waiting for those nice folks to just deliver a new release for us :)
