Transport Endpoint Not Connected – Mesos Slave / Master

I’m trying to connect a Mesos slave to its master. Whenver the slave tries to connect to the master, I get the following message:

I0806 16:39:59.090845   935 hierarchical.hpp:528] Added slave 20150806-163941-1027506442-5050-921-S3 (debian) with cpus(*):1; mem(*):1938; disk(*):3777; ports(*):[31000-32000] (allocated: )

The error seems to be:

E0806 16:39:59.091384 940 socket.hpp:107] Shutdown failed on fd=25: Transport endpoint is not connected [107]

The host was started using:

./mesos-master.sh --ip=10.129.62.61 --work_dir=~/Mesos/mesos-0.23.0/workdir/ --zk=zk://10.129.62.61:2181/mesos --quorum=1

And the slave

./mesos-slave.sh --master=zk://10.129.62.61:2181/mesos

If I run the slave on the same VM as the host it’s working fine.

I couldn’t find much information on the internet. I’m running two virtual boxes (Debian 8.1) on VirtualBox 5. The host is a windows 7.

Edit 1:

The master and the slave both run on a dedicated VM.

Both VMs nextorks are configured using bridged network.

Answer

I had a similar problem. My slave logs would be filled with

    E0812 15:58:04.017990  2193 socket.hpp:107] Shutdown failed on fd=13: Transport endpoint is not connected [107]

My master would have

    F0120 20:45:48.025610 12116 master.cpp:1083] Recovery failed: Failed to recover registrar: Failed to perform fetch within 1mins

And the master would die, and a new election would occur, the killed master would be restarted by upstart (I am on a Centos 6 box) and be added into the pool of potential masters. Thus my elected master would daisy chain around my master nodes. Many restarts of masters and slaves did nothing the problem would consistently return within 1 minute of master election.

The solution for me came from a this stackoverflow question (thanks) and a hint in a github gist note.

The gist of it is /etc/default/mesos-master must specify a quorum number (it needs to be correct for the number of mesos masters, in my case 3)

    MESOS_QUORUM=2

This seems odd to me as I have the same information in the file /etc/mesos-master/quorum

But I added it to /etc/default/mesos-master restarted the mesos-masters and slaves and the problem has not returned.

I hope this helps you.
