[jacorb-developer] JacORB hangs in endless connection retry loop

[Franz van Betteraey]

Hi,
 
we try to connect to a not responding corba service using JacORB 3.6.1. We set the properties jacorb.retries and jacorb.connection.client.pending_reply_timeout and hoped to get a failure after the number of specified retries.
Instead it seems that JacORB is ending in an endless loop, trying to connect to the service
 
(1) connect to nameservice (success)
(2) connect to corba service (timeout failure); retry
(3) goto (1) - we did not expect this
 
The log is attached below. I can't imagine that JacORB is the problem - but the SUN ORRB works as expected. Probably we are doing something wrong. Does anyone knows the cause for this behaviour?
 
Any help is appreciated.
 
Kind regards
  Franz
