Terracotta console not showing my application when remote

Question

My application uses terracotta/ehcache for hibernate 2nd level cache as well as 'custom' application caching, when running the terracotta server locally and connecting to it with the developer console I can see my application and the various caches and stats. When I deploy the same setup to a different server, it seems to be working but when I connect the developer console to the remote server, I am able to see a server in the server array under the Topology node, but I do not have a 'My Application' node as I do when running it locally. Is this correct, are you not able to see this when connecting remotely or have a messed up the configuration?

Answer 1

Thank you for all the help, I have managed to get it working, it seems a little patience is the answer. It takes quite a while before the application shows up (over a minute!). Sorry if I wasted anyone's time and thanks again for trying to help

Answer 2

In my case terracotta server restart did help with a similar symptoms. I have checked your configuration...nothing special there. Just in case I'm attaching my config for your reference (I use mirror group). Also I noticed that you use <configuration-model>production</configuration-model> which I don't.

Try using my config (that works without issues you described), here it is:

<tc:tc-config xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.terracotta.org/schema/terracotta-6.xsd" xmlns:tc="http://www.terracotta.org/config" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
  <tc-properties>
    <property name="l2.l1reconnect.enabled" value="true"/>
    <property name="l2.l1reconnect.timeout.millis" value="5000"/>

    <property name="search.use.commit.thread" value="false"/>
    <property name="search.lucene.use.ram.directory" value="true"/>
    <property name="search.query.wait.for.txns" value="false"/>
    <property name="logging.maxLogFileSize" value="100"/>
    <property name="logging.maxBackups" value="10"/>
  </tc-properties>
