[pgpool-general: 3908] Unexpected error occurred in rollback

[Videanu Adrian]

Hi All,
I have a pgpool-II version 3.3.4 (tokakiboshi) Master-Slave setup and two Postgres 9.3.3 servers configured also as Master-Slave with Streaming Replication.On a application side i have a JPA(Hibernate)  app running on a glassfish 4.1 server.
My nodes are defined as:
backend_hostname0 = '192.168.1.31'
backend_port0 = 5432
backend_weight0 = 1
backend_data_directory0 = '/var/lib/postgresql/9.3/data'
backend_flag0= 'ALLOW_TO_FAILOVER'

backend_hostname1 = '192.168.1.32'
backend_port1 = 5432
backend_weight1 = 0
backend_data_directory1 = '/var/lib/postgresql/9.3/data'
backend_flag1= 'ALLOW_TO_FAILOVER'


on each postgresql node I have : 

# - Memory -
shared_buffers = 2560MB                 # min 128kB

max_prepared_transactions = 512         # zero disables the feature
                                        # (change requires restart)
# Note:  Increasing max_prepared_transactions costs ~600 bytes of shared memory
# per transaction slot, plus lock space (see max_locks_per_transaction).
# It is not advisable to set max_prepared_transactions nonzero unless you
# actively intend to use prepared transactions.


The problem is that when Node 1 (192.168.1.32) is the master (Node0 1.31 slave, after a failover) if something happens with a transaction and need to be rolledback I get : 

JTS5068: Unexpected error occurred in rollback

        at com.sun.jts.jta.TransactionManagerImpl.rollback(TransactionManagerImpl.java:372)
        ...............................................................................................

And glassfish server needs to be restarted to kill all connections and open new ones.
But, when Node 0 is the master this issue is not present. I have check and postgresql conf seems to be identical, at least in what concerns XA transactions... 
Any idea what could be the issue here ?

Adrian Videanu

That depends how your app behaves. For example if you want to start
10000 psql sessions, you need to set num_init_children=10000. On the
other hand, if your app is someting like web app, which connects to DB
and disconnects very frequently (and each session is very short), you
could set lower value of num_init_children.

Note that pgbench is psql type app.
