the correct attr name is mcastBindAddress if I remember it correctly,
but if it is working for you now, then that is great

Hi,
Sorry for deply in reply..I was out of the work...!
I did change the xx.yy.zz.aa to the proper value. I am testing these
scenarios on Linux machines. I got information from google search
about this error.

It said that, if the network is not multihomed, then we do not have to
specify the attribute "mcastBindAddress".
So, I just commented out
mcastBindAddr="192.168.11.3 <http://192.168.11.3>" in the
geronimo-web.xml files and redeployed the applications on each node.
Now, all the session replication and fail-over is happening.
I do not know what is multihomed network. I will try to know and
update you on this.
To my surprise, when I tested on only windows machines, this problem
is not there. It is experienced only on Linux machines.
Thanks
Phani

yup, this would cause a null pointer later on if not changed. it
would
have to be a valid value, or "auto", which will decide the IP on
its own.
