使用Hazelcast而不是Web进行Shiro会话群集

Question

I have written a Netty-based REST service which is deployed directly (ie without a Web/Application server). For authn, authz and session management I am using Apache Shiro. Now I want to be able to load-balance this service without using sticky sessions on our load-balancer; and I am trying to set that up using in-process Hazelcast instances.

So far I have managed to have two instances of my service running on two different machines create a Hazelcast cluster with two members; but even so, if I authenticate on one machine, the other still doesn't recognize the session. So I think I have probably made a mistake in my shiro.ini and/or my hazelcast.xml configuration files.

I am essentially using the HazelCastCacheManager class from here https://github.com/stormpath/shiro-hazelcast-web-sample/blob/master/src/main/java/com/stormpath/samples/shiro/hazelcast/cache/HazelcastCacheManager.java

Here is my hazelcast.xml (our setup doesn't allow multicast, I have to specify the machine IPs directly):

<hazelcast>
  <properties>
    <property name="hazelcast.logging.type">slf4j</property>
  </properties>

  <map name="shiro-activeSessionsCache">
    <async-backup-count>1</async-backup-count>
    <time-to-live-seconds>600</time-to-live-seconds>
  </map>

  <network>
    <join>
      <multicast enabled="false"></multicast>
      <tcp-ip enabled="true">
        <member>x.x.x.x:8050</member> <!-- server A -->
        <member>x.x.x.x:8050</member> <!-- server B -->
      </tcp-ip>
    </join>
    <interfaces enabled="true">
        <interface>x.x.x.*</interface>
    </interfaces>
    <port port-count="20" auto-increment="false">8050</port>    
  </network>

</hazelcast>

And a portion of my shiro.ini

sessionDAO = org.apache.shiro.session.mgt.eis.EnterpriseCacheSessionDAO
sessionManager = org.apache.shiro.session.mgt.DefaultSessionManager

sessionDAO.activeSessionsCacheName = shiro-activeSessionsCache
securityManager.sessionManager.sessionDAO = $sessionDAO

cacheManager = HazelcastCacheManager

securityManager.cacheManager = $cacheManager

sessionManager.globalSessionTimeout = 600000
sessionValidationScheduler = org.apache.shiro.session.mgt.ExecutorServiceSessionValidationScheduler
sessionValidationScheduler.interval = 600000
sessionManager.sessionValidationScheduler = $sessionValidationScheduler

securityManager.sessionManager=$sessionManager

What am I missing? How can I instruct Shiro to share the session among all Hazelcast instances? Or is my mistake in the HazelcastCacheManager class?

Here is the log Hazelcast produces when I start up my two services:

This is the first service starting up:

log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger (org.apache.commons.beanutils.converters.BooleanConverter).

Answer 1

I think my error was in my actual Java code, not in the configuration files:

In all my initial tests, running the service on a single server, I used this to get the current Shiro user:

Subject currentUser = SecurityUtils.getSubject();

However, the session key produced by this is the same for the same user on one server, but different for the same user on different servers; and the session key is used to identify a session in the cache. I was originally hoping to be able not having to pass a session key along with a REST call. but if I explicitly pass the session key and then use this to get the current user, then sessions can successfully be recognized in different servers:

Subject currentUser = null;
if (parameters.containsKey("session")) {
    sId = parameters.get("session");
    currentUser = new Subject.Builder().sessionId(sId).buildSubject();
} else {
    currentUser = SecurityUtils.getSubject();
}

(I am using a Map to store all URL parameters before reaching this code snippet)

Follow-up question: is is possible to share Shiro sessions without cookies or explicitly passing the session key in other ways from the client to the server?
