Description

Resolution:
Usually it is because of incorrect NIC. The RVD uses the loopback IP address“127.0.0.1” as the broadcast address. So no message can be sent out of the machine. This can be verified via running utility $(tibco_home)/tibrv/bin/iniftst.

For instance, the following indicates that the loopback IP address is used. In fact, "192.168.65.187" should be used.
<-------------------------
[@tssun: ~/tibco/tibrv/bin]$ iniftst

Hostname:     tssun
IP address:   127.0.0.1
Rev IP name:  tssun

------------------------->


The problem is from file /etc/hosts. (the hostname of my server was “tssun”).

The domain was detected successfully after changing the above line to:
